Indie rock titans The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie are gearing up for their landmark 20th anniversary ‘Give Up Transatlanticism’ co-headline tour.
The live dates will celebrate the 20th anniversaries of each band’s seminal 2003 album; The Postal Service’s RIAA Platinum-certified ‘Give Up’ and Death Cab for Cutie’s RIAA Platinum-certified breakthrough fourth studio LP ‘Transatlanticism’.
Benjamin Gibbard, co-founder of both bands, will continue to pull double duty on the live dates, performing ‘Give Up’ and ‘Transatlanticism’ in full alongside his respective bandmates.
He commented, “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.”
The Postal Service is comprised of Gibbard, Jimmy Tamborello, and Jenny Lewis.
Death Cab for Cutie is comprised of Gibbard, Nick Harmer, Dave Depper, Zac Rae, and Jason McGerr.
