BROOKLYN, New York — Reuniting for their first performance in two years, Grizzly Bear played at a rally supporting Bernie Sanders in Brooklyn's Prospect Park. The band performed crowd favorites “While You Wait For the Others,” “Knife” and ”Two Weeks.“ During “Knife,” the band changed the words from “can’t you feel the knife” to “can’t you feel the Bern.”

New York hip-hop duo EPMD and Jamaican reggae artist Tanya Stephens also performed during Sunday’s rally which attracted more than 28,000 people, according to the Sanders campaign. Danny DeVito, Justin Long and Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard provided stump speeches for the event and explained why they are backing Sanders' run to the White House.

The Democratic socialist received two new endorsements during the event, CNN contributor Sally Kohn and New York City councilman Jumaane Williams—who drew the loudest applause from the crowd besides Sanders himself— announced their support on Sunday.

“A couple days ago I was reading the New York Daily News,” Councilman Williams began, “and they endorsed another candidate, and what they said about Bernie was, he was at war with reality, and I thought to myself, ‘You’re Goddamn damn right.”

 

Registered Democrats in New York tomorrow Tuesday the 19th of April you have a chance to elect a candidate who cares about your outcome! THIS is the next POTUS! All that's left is for you to acknowledge it. The world is depending on you! #nyforbernie #feelthebern2016 This picture dedicated to @wildeatsaustin Rachael ♡♡♡♡

Councilman Williams continued: “Too many people’s reality in this borough, and in this city, and in this nation, needs to be at war with. Too many people’s reality—is struggle, and maybe if you’re not at war with reality, you’re not focused enough."

The Sanders event and endorsements come two days ahead of New York's primary election on April 19.
