Bear's Den are a British alternative country and indie folk band from London, formed in 2012 and consisting of Andrew Davie (lead vocals, electric guitar, acoustic guitar) and Kevin Jones (vocals, drums, bass, guitar). Joey Haynes (vocals, banjo, guitar) left in early 2016. Since their 2016/2017 tour in Europe and North America, Haynes has been replaced by Dutch artist Christof van der Ven, not as an official member but as a session musician.^[2]

Bear's Den have released five studio albums: Islands (2014), Red Earth & Pouring Rain (2016), So That You Might Hear Me (2019), Fragments (2020), and Blue Hours (2022). Islands peaked at number 49 on the UK Albums Chart. They have also issued seven EPs and numerous singles.

The band has been nominated for several music awards throughout their career, with "Above the Clouds of Pompeii" earning them a nomination for the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically, in 2015. They received two nominations at the UK Americana Awards in 2016, as Artist of the Year and Song of the Year, for "Agape".
