Bearsuit are an indie band from Norwich, UK. They are signed to the Fantastic Plastic label in the UK and Micro Indie in the US. They have also released records under their own Bearslut label, and many of their 7 inch singles were released through the Sickroom Gramaphonic Collective (Sickroom GC). Like nearly every other band in this genre, they have frequently been compared to Scottish indie giants Belle And Sebastian but have a style very much their own, mixing sweet indie-pop melodies, stop-start rhythms, quirky electronics, and lots of noise.

Since playing their first gig in 2001 the band have notched up four Radio 1 sessions on the legendary John Peel show and three Festive 50 top five hits, including the number 2 slot in 2004 with their latest single Chargr.
