Grizzly Bear have released a new song “Four Cypresses” accompanied with a video of spliced home video footage from Daniel Rossen’s family, compiled by Daniel himself.

In his words:

“there’s a video component to this new GB song, Four Cypresses. I decided to splice one together from some old Rossen home video footage that was transferred (poorly) from VHS to digital a few years back. Most of this stuff from the late 80s filmed by my father in our yard in LA and on a trip to New York City, mainly the moments where he wandered off and started filming the trees, or the street, or the piles of trash in our garage. The older stuff is Rossen footage from a generation earlier, probably late 50s, that was archived on the same VHS tapes. The guy that appears at the very beginning is my grandfather. The blond kid with the paper maché witch is my brother. The kid watching him from the window is me.“

Grizzly Bear’s 5th studio album, Painted Ruins, will be out 8/18. Pre-order the album here.
