Bear's Sonic Journals: Sing Out! is a three-CD live album of acoustic music by various artists. It features performances by Jerry Garcia & Bob Weir, Country Joe McDonald, Kate Wolf, Rosalie Sorrels, and the Rhythm Devils. It was recorded at the Berkeley Community Theater in Berkeley, California on April 25, 1981. The album includes a 50-page booklet of essays and photos. It was released on February 23, 2024.[1][2]

The "Sing Out" concert was a benefit for the Seva Foundation, organized by Wavy Gravy.[3] It was recorded by audio engineer (and LSD chemist) Owsley "Bear" Stanley. A performance by Odetta at the same show is not included in the album, as the producers were unable to secure the rights to it.

On Americana Highways, John Apice said, "The 3rd CD in this impeccable package features more ambitious playing with what's an abbreviated Grateful Dead performance.... Several tracks are classic Dead songs & traditional pieces mixed with some covers that sparkle in the Dead oeuvre."[4]
