Death Cab for Cutie and The Postal Service will come together for a co-headlining 2023 tour celebrating the 20-year anniversaries of their respective albums, Transatlanticism and Give Up, and tickets will treat audiences to full performances of both.
Ben Gibbard, who co-founded and fronts both groups, shared in a statement: “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.”
