Featuring our friends Deep Sea Diver opening all shows except for Red Rocks, where we'll have the incredible Perfume Genius aboard. We've missed your faces so much. LET'S GO.”  Today’s announce comes on the heels of the release of the band’s full-length live album Live At The Showbox, released earlier this month for just 24 hours as a Bandcamp Friday exclusive (official release to follow later this year). A portion of proceeds from the release benefitted NIVA.  Live At The Showbox was recorded just before the Covid-19 lockdowns over a sold-out three-night-stand from February 24-26, 2020 at The Showbox in Seattle, an iconic venue that has played a major role in Death Cab for Cutie’s rich history over the past two decades. The intimate run – which was held in support of the “Save The Showbox” campaign to secure official landmark status for the historic theatre – saw the band performing music from throughout their catalog, including a complete performance of 2003’s RIAA gold certified breakthrough fourth album, Transatlanticism.  Live At The Showbox followed last December’s The Georgia E.P., a five-track collection of covers initially released as a 24-hour Bandcamp exclusive which raised over $100K for Fair Fight Action, the national voter’s rights organization founded by Stacy Abrams to promote fair elections around the country through voter education, election reform, and combating voter suppression. Recorded remotely during quarantine over four days in the band members’ respective home studios, the EP includes covers of some of the band’s favorite artists from the great state of Georgia, including TLC (“Waterfalls”), Neutral Milk Hotel (“King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 1”), R.E.M. (“Fall On Me”), Vic Chesnutt (“Flirted With You All My Life”), and Cat Power (“Metal Heart”). In January, Death Cab for Cutie celebrated the Georgia runoff election results by officially releasing The Georgia E.P. across all streaming platforms HERE.  For updates and more information, please visit deathcabforcutie.com.     DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE – 2021 LIVE DATES  9/4 - Missoula, MT - KettleHouse Amphitheater ^ 9/6 - Bend, OR - Les Schwab Amphitheater ^ 9/7 - Nampa, ID - Ford Idaho Center Amphitheater ^ 9/8 - Spokane, WA - Spokane Pavilion at Riverfront ^ 9/10 - Ogden, UT - Ogden Twilight ^ [SOLD OUT] 9/11 - Vail, CO - Gerald R.
