An EP Friend Was Released The Following Year Featuring Material Recorded Mostly During The Same Sessions. Following The Release Of Horn Of Plenty In 2004 Grizzly Bear Expanded From Being The Solo Moniker For Vocalist Ed Droste Into A Full Band With The Addition Of Horn Of Plenty Collaborator Christopher Bear Bassist And Multi-Instrumentalist Chris Taylor And Guitarist And Vocalist Daniel Rossen. Christopher Bear Noted "Getting Together The Band For The Live Show Changed Things Quite A Bit In Terms Of Dynamics And Instrumentation Used. The Songs Were Quite Simple And Open Ended So It Left A Lot Of Room For Interpretation Which Was Great Because It Allowed Us To Get A Band Sound Happening And Working On A Very Reactionary Level."
