Hello! It’s been a while everyone, we miss you all-we are busy working on new songs in the studio but on our downtime we’ve been looking at old photos & taking a trip down memory lane. It’s been an amazing 6 years in Bear’s Den & we wanted to share some of those moments with you.
The moment is finally here, our album is out NOW! We are so excited for you all to hear it in its entirety, we’re very proud of it and thank you all so much for being so supportive of us, it really does mean the world.
Listen here:
What a way to finish touring an album! Lotto Arena you were amazing. To everyone that’s come to a show since Red Earth & Pouring Rain came out, listened to our music, sent us lovely messages, thank you all so much, it means the world to us.
Lots of love,
Davie and Kev xxx
It is with the greatest of excitement that we can announce we have a new album coming out on May 13th. Our 4th album is called “Blue Hours” and we couldn’t be more proud of it. You can pre-order the album now along with some epic merch bundles from
We’ve been blown away by the response to our new tunes. Thank you so much to everyone for your messages and for listening, we appreciate it so much! The Den x
Wow-yesterday marked 2 years since Red Earth & Pouring Rain came out! Thanks to all of you who came to a show or listened to the album-we are so grateful! Here are pics from the making of the album including the birth of the greatest ping-pong-partnership in the history of music.
WE DID IT!!!!!!
Thanks to all of you Blue Hours is a UK Top 10 album! We ended up at
#6
(!!!!) in the album chart and
#1
in the independent album chart. We genuinely just can’t believe it!
The incredible 'Noonday Dream' by
@benhowardmusic
came out earlier this month and we can't stop listening to it. We had the honour of touring with Ben back in 2012 on the Austin to Boston tour. It was the most wonderful adventure we had ever been on and still is!
So, over the next few months prepare yourself for a rock and roll roller coaster of a journey through space and time to the very heart of the Den. Hold on to your hats because we will be posting pictures as awe inspiring as this one for the months to come. Enjoy!
Hi everyone,
As you’ll remember, last summer we packed our bags and headed off to the farthest corners of the UK, to the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, a region that is very dear to us and important to the history of our band.
We’re so excited to announce that we've released a new song “Evelyn” into the world! -
This is the first song from a new EP called “First Loves” which we recorded at the end of last year and will be coming out on the 23rd of June.
We are beyond excited to release our Winter EP ‘Only Son of the Falling Snow’ TODAY! We’re incredibly proud of the songs and had a lot of fun working on them with our long-time friend and collaborator Ian Grimble. We really hope you like it. Listen now:
Dear friends,
Seasons greetings and Tidings of Comfort and Joy to you all!
We are incredibly excited to announce our new Christmas song: “Christmas, Hopefully”.
We are so proud to let you know that we spent some time earlier this year working on a song called ‘I Want You To Change (Because You Want To Change)’ with the enchanting and amazing
@maisiehpeters
for the
@AppleTV
+ series ’Trying’ and it’s out today:
Wow - what a way to round off our European tour, with two sold out shows at Shepherd's Bush Empire! Thank you so much to everyone who came out to see us over the last month, it’s been an honour. Also our 3rd album ‘So that you might hear me’ is yours at midnight tonight. Hooray!
Hi everyone, our song Crow is out now, along with a video featuring the beautiful people of São Paulo, Nashville, London and Brussels. We can’t thank you all enough for being in the video, it means the world to us, as does all your support on the road. xx
Ever wondered how Bear's Den funded itself in the beginning? Let's just say the early morning runs to Heathrow will never be the same since we went full time...
It’s a massive day for us in the Den and we’re absolutely delighted to announce the release of our “First Loves” EP. We’re so proud of this little collection of songs and can’t wait for you to hear them all -
‘All That You Are’ is a song fundamentally about hoping for happiness for someone else even if you can’t be the one that makes them happy. It’s also about not being ashamed about looking for that same happiness for yourself.

LONDON! What a night. Thank you so much to everyone of you who came out and sang along! We can’t wait to do this all over again next week in Brussels and Amsterdam. Until then.
Hi everyone, as we have been tantalisingly alluding to over the last week or so we are very excited to announce that we are releasing a studio recording of the Fragments shows we did with our good friend
@PaulFrithMusic
back in 2018.
Hi everyone, our new record ‘So that you might hear me’ has returned to Spotify! Luckily now this technical issue has been fixed so we are pleased to say our new album is out now, again!
Thanks for bearing with us

We can’t wait to get out on the road and play music again! The fan pre-sale for our upcoming tour begins Weds 6th Feb at 10AM GMT. Pre-order our new album 'So that you might hear me' from our website to get access -
Hi everyone, hope you’re all ok! Kev and I have both been hibernating and writing as much as possible but we thought it'd be fun to do some tutorial videos of a few of our songs. To get the ball rolling here’s the guitar for “Above the Clouds of Pompeii”.
We miss gigs. You miss gigs. We miss playing gigs. We miss you coming to our gigs. Luckily, we recorded our show at EartH in Hackney in September 2018, so we thought we’d share this video with you so we can all remember what gigs were like.
As Groucho Marx once said- ‘Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana’ -we can’t believe it’s 5 years since our debut album Islands came out. Thank you to all of you for coming with us on this extraordinary journey, here’s to another 5 years!
We’re really excited to share the music video for Laurel Wreath today - we teamed up with the Brazilian director duo Jungle to make this film, we love their work and are very proud of it! The Den x
Hi everyone, we are very excited to share another song, 'Napoleon', from our collaboration with
@PaulFrithMusic

Thanks so much to everybody who came out to see us play at one of our in-store performances over the last week and an especially huge shout out to those of you who pre-ordered or purchased vinyl and CDs. We've had a wonderful time meeting you all and playing these special shows.
It was one of our favourite festivals
@BarnOnTheFarm
last weekend, we played a secret show there in 2016, and enjoyed the company of some friendly emus too. Good times were had.
Who has one of these? We carved many a bear paw into many a potato in the early days of Bear's Den. Here are a couple of old pictures of the prototype design and the recording setup of our bootleg EP, self recorded in Cardigan, Wales in 2012.
We’ve gathered together all of our Christmas releases from the last few years into one place for your listening pleasure. So settle in by the fire, get some chestnuts roasting and tune into ‘The Quiet Winter Light’ playlist here -
We have some really exciting news... On July 22nd we'll be releasing the soundtrack to the third season of the
@appletv
series "Trying". Featuring nine original songs written by us.
Pre-save now:
Our new single 'Laurel Wreath' is out now. It's a song about vulnerability and courage, and the need for connection - a theme that runs through the whole of our new album. If you've not heard it yet, listen now on
@SpotifyUK
These shows will be our last of the 'So that you might hear me' era. We’ll be making them extra special & hopefully we’ll be able to play some songs that you might not have heard at a Bear’s Den gig before, plus some old favourites!
Final tickets from:
UK & EUROPE! It was so beautiful seeing so many of you at all of our shows the last couple of months. So much so, we're coming back for a whole bunch more this November! Presale tickets available right now from .
