The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie Expand Give Up Transatlanticism Tour

12-01-2023

(Atlantic) The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie have unveiled additional North American dates for their landmark 20th anniversary co-headline 'Give Up Transatlanticism' tour, set for April-May 2024 - and have shared the official tour trailer (directed by frequent visual collaborator Juliet Bryant).

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, and marquee dates in many other major cities - bringing 250k+ fans together at iconic arenas and amphitheaters across the US.

This extraordinary live run celebrates 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 - 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. "Few musicians have released two culture-shifting records in the span of a single year," Pitchfork proclaimed within their glowing review of this fall's first MSG show, "and even less have done it with two different musical outfits."

Kicking off in Atlanta on April 23, the spring 2024 run will include stops in Nashville, Toronto, Vancouver, Milwaukee, and more, before culminating in Portland, OR on May 15. Indie rock quartet Slow Pulp is set to support each night of the tour.

Presales will begin next Wednesday, December 6 at 10am local time, starting with the Artist Presale. All tickets will be available at the general on-sale starting next Friday, December 8 at 10am local time. Sign up for early access to tickets at giveuptransatlanticismtour.com.
