LittleBear is the project of Nick Principe. Originally built from warm chords and muffled drums in the woods of upstate New York, LittleBear has taken Principe from east to west, finally landing in Portland, Oregon. Here, among the clouds and rain of a new city he begins work on his debut LP.

"I don't know if it's because winter is approaching or because true music draws you whether you want it or not, but I have listened to this EP nonstop ever since I first got it"
-Indiehere
"It makes me want to get in the car, and drive and drive."
-My Life is a Stereo
"Principe's debut EP is a well layered and soulful taste of what is to come."
-What To Wear During an Orange Alert
"...four tracks that combine the haunting intimacy of Jeff Buckley with sparse melodies and a gentle charm that are all LittleBear's own."
-Stereokill
"I could see myself alone in the woods hiking to this, and I don't hike anymore"
-Radioexile

I enjoyed your set as well.. I didn't get the chance to tell you, I had to take off early. Have you played there before? I felt that your face was one I've seen before. Ezza

Howdy ho! We're actually planning a two week tour so let's meet up in April. Maybe do a show together? Either way, we'll be looking to add a Portland date. More soon! :)
Cheers. Being in NE, we would recommend The Know on Alberta and The Coop out in N Portland on Lombard for shows. Good bars abound, with and without music. Keep us updated on your doings.
