The tour begins Sept. 24 at Eugene, Oregon’s Hult Center for the Performing Arts and travels through mid-October. See a full list of dates below. 

Pre-sales for the tour begin Wednesday, May 2 at 10 a.m. local time, and you can purchase tickets here. One dollar from each ticket purchased through the band’s website will go toward The Aurora Commons—a Seattle based nonprofit organization that offers a safe space for unhoused neighbors to rest, prepare a meal, connect to resources and collectively create a healthy and vibrant community. All remaining tickets will be released Friday, May 4 at 10 a.m. local time. 

Death Cab recently finished recording their new album, and today unveiled the first glimpse via a teaser clip featuring one of the tracks, which you can view below. The album will arrive in late summer and marks the first Death Cab For Cutie release to see longtime bandmates Ben Gibbard, Nick Harmer and Jason McGerr joined in the studio by new members Dave Depper (Menomena, Fruit Bats, Corin Tucker, Ray Lamontagne) and Zac Rae (My Brightest Diamond, Fiona Apple, Lana Del Rey, Gnarls Barkley). Depper and Rae have both been part of Death Cab’s touring band since 2015.
