Death Cab for Cutie and The Postal Service announce a joint London show for 2024
Indie rock titans The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie have unveiled a London date for their landmark 20th anniversary co-headline 'Give Up Transatlanticism’ tour.
The live dates celebrates the 20th anniversaries of each band’s seminal 2003 album, The Postal Service’s Give Up and Death Cab for Cutie’s breakthrough fourth studio LP Transatlanticism – two classics released within a mere eight months of one another and created with a total recording budget of just $20k. Benjamin Gibbard, co-founder of both bands, will continue to pull double duty on the 2024 dates, performing Give Up and Transatlanticism in full alongside his respective bandmates.
“I know for a fact I will never have a year again like 2003. The Postal Service record came out, Transatlanticism came out. These two records will be on my tombstone, and I’m totally fine with that. I’ve never had a more creatively inspired year," says Gibbard.
They have also added more North American dates to the tour. The extension comes in response to massive demand from fans, following the joint tour’s critically acclaimed and wildly-successful 2023 dates. That run was entirely sold-out and included back-to-back shows at NYC’s Madison Square Garden, three nights at LA’s Hollywood Bowl.
