Polar Bear 'Be Free' single and video
Published 26 February 2014 by DM

We’re very pleased to present the video for the new Polar Bear single, ‘Be Free’. It’s the first track to be taken from their new album In Each And Every One (to be released on March 24), an exciting departure for Polar Bear into uncharted open terrain.    

You can order the single from our shop now.  Exclusive to this digital only release is an alternative take of the single (‘Be Free Be Free’) and a skeletal remix by enigmatic young London-based producer Gerry Read.

Polar Bear have just been added to the bills of the Love Supreme and Brecon Jazz festivals. Details of their UK tour in March and April can be found on our live page.

Pre-order the album In Each And Every One here.

“It not only brims with startling invention, but is likely to put them on the map as go-to soundtrackers of urban-life melancholy, alongside the likes of not-so anonymous beat trafficker Burial and Brian Eno-collaborator Jon Hopkins”
the Quietus

“Refreshingly unconventional”
