Along with sets from Dirty Projectors and Akron/Family, Grizzly Bear’s performance under the pale icicle-lit eaves of the Cedar Street Courtyard, made for one of the most memorable moments of the festival. Particularly, this collaboration with Beach House’s Victoria Legrand on Vecktamist stand-out, “Two Weeks.”

In administrative news, expect part two of the Rap-Rock piece by tomorrow, with a full SXSW wrap-up due Friday.  In the meantime, enjoy this video and the MP3 for “Cheerleader,” which the band recently made available for free download. And yes, if you were wondering, Vecktamist is my current front-runner for AOY.
