We Are Not Bears is a rock band based out of Purchase, NY. Members include James Ryan (ex-Le Rug, Space Ghost Cowboys) on bass, William Whatley on drums, and Kyle Pollard (Donner Party Picnic, Space Ghost Cowboys) on lead vocals and guitar. The band has become known for their heavy, rhythmically driven sound, pushed by Whatley’s thick drumming approach, Pollard's languid melody & harmony, and Ryan’s complimentary, pocketed bass lines. Drawing influence everywhere from D.I.Y. revolutionaries Fugazi, to Built to Spill, Sunny Day Real Estate, and the mid-west indie scene, We Are Not Bears have developed a unique voice in the NYC area.
