Elysium by Bears Den published on 2014-06-09T11:18:46Z Bear’s Den release their new single, Elysium on 21st July on Communion Records/Caroline. Their strongest song to date, Elysium is an elegiac paean to the redemptive power of friendship and the song that marks the point Bear's Den go from best kept secret to your new favourite band. iTunes – http://po.st/ElysiumiTunes Spotify - http://po.st/ElysiumSP Deezer - http://po.st/ElysiumDZ Elysium is backed by three live recordings of tracks from previous EPs Agape and Without/Within (Don't Let The Sun Steal You Away, Isaac and Sophie, all recorded live at the Brixton Electric on 13th May 2014). Bear’s Den are Andrew Davie (guitar, vocals), Joey Haynes (guitar), and Kev Jones (drums, bass). Since forming in 2012, the London based trio have built a fervent fanbase through their live shows and a dedicated DIY aesthetic that originally saw them self-fund tours and sell hand printed CDs direct to fans at gigs. In two short years, Andrew, Joey and Kev quietly went from pub shows to a jaw dropping headline gig at the Brixton Electric in front of 1500 people. Their appearance at Mumford & Sons’ Summer Stampede saw them play in front of a 60,000 strong, sold out crowd in London’s newly landscaped Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. In the US, the band played support tours with Mumford and Sons and Daughter and festival shows on the Gentlemen Of The Road Stopover Tour in both the US and Canada. Following on from their two acclaimed EPs on Communion Records, Bear’s Den are currently working on their debut album in a North London studio. It is due for release in the autumn. The band play UK summer shows at: Weds 25th – Sun 29th June: Glastonbury Festival Fri 18th July: Curious Arts Festival, Pylewell Park, Hampshire Sun 20th July: Somersault Festival, Devon http://po.st/BDwebsite http://po.st/BDFacebook http://po.st/BDTwitter http://po.st/BDYoutube http://po.st/BSSoundcloud Genre Alternative Comment by Explorer: 'Orb & Sceptre', Server.§phere CH.BABE moo 2022-11-12T22:13:08Z Comment by BRAVE NEW WORLD Love this soo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2016-02-01T19:40:58Z Comment by Nicola Aresta nice trumpet sound 2015-12-20T18:52:50Z Comment by annaisthatyou My soul is calmed 2015-12-09T13:37:20Z Comment by HansieV Wow... beautiful.. 2015-12-02T21:46:51Z Comment by Haley Petrey This is pretty cool. :) 2015-11-09T14:08:16Z Comment by rey.buys ma favourite part 2015-09-18T15:35:47Z Comment by Awni Farhat Brother do you believe in an afterlife Where our souls will both collide In some great Elysium Way up in the sky Free from our shackles, our chains Our mouths, our brains We'll open all the gates And we will walk careless Straight into the light I've never felt so enlightened With every page I turn I only find myself feeling more alone Posing questions to a silent universe My very thoughts a curse They just seem to multiply Forever in my mind Brother don't grow up Brother please never grow up Hold out against the night Guard your hope with your life For the darkness, she will come Oh and you will have nowhere left to run Oh but your eyes are wider than mine And help me to sleep I just hope that age does not erase All that you see Don't let bitterness become you Your only hopes are all within you Hold out against the night Guard your hope with your lif 2015-09-10T19:37:29Z Comment by gracedivine Every word of this song speaks to me. 2015-08-08T01:01:29Z Comment by David Min Feels summery 2015-06-16T10:23:15Z Comment by JUST JAMIE MUSIC Really cool son@Loving the trumpet in the last chorus. 2015-05-26T12:40:52Z Comment by Vijay Bisht very well sung 2015-05-09T01:01:05Z Comment by Vidushi New obsession. 2015-04-26T19:17:35Z Comment by Vidushi New obsession. 2015-04-26T19:16:04Z Comment by indie folk songwriter/fred king of the bears Great words 2015-04-04T20:33:31Z Comment by Fort Road So incredibly powerful, I'm totally fangirling 2015-02-09T14:11:19Z Comment by mermaidhawk I am in awe !!
