Bears and Company

**Bears and Company** is a Portland, Oregon-based indie folk collective known for their dreamy, nature-inspired soundscapes and introspective storytelling. Formed around 2015, the band blends warm acoustic arrangements with subtle psychedelic flourishes, creating music that feels equally suited for campfire singalongs and late-night headphone sessions. Their recent releases, like *Nagoya* and the remastered *South of the Mountain* (2023), showcase their knack for earthy melodies and lyrical themes that wander through themes of self-discovery, nostalgia, and the Pacific Northwest’s misty landscapes. With a DIY ethos and a grassroots following, Bears and Company have carved out a cozy niche in the indie-folk scene, often touring regionally and collaborating with like-minded artists who share their love for organic, unfiltered creativity.
