The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie Announce 2023 Co-Headlining Tour [UPDATED]

The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie Announce 2023 Co-Headlining Tour [UPDATED]

Ben Gibbard is set to pull double duty on The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie’s 2023 co-headlining tour. During the fall run, the groups will celebrate the 20th anniversary of their respective albums Give Up and Transatlanticism by performing them in full.

Marking the first live performances from The Postal Service in over a decade, the trek will kick off on September 5th in Washington, DC ahead of stops in Boston; New York City; Philadelphia; Seattle; and more. It will wrap in Los Angeles on October 17th.

Tickets for newly announced dates in Texas go on sale March 3rd via Ticketmaster. The rest of the tour’s tickets are currently available to purchase via Stubhub — where your order is 100% guaranteed through Stubhub’s FanProtect program.

Gibbard will be accompanied by Jimmy Tamborello and Jenny Lewis for The Postal Service performances, with Nick Harmer, Dave Depper, Zac Rae, and Jason McGerr filling out the Death Cab lineup.

Warpaint will open the first half of the tour before giving way to The Beths, who will serve as support through the first of three shows at the Hollywood Bowl. Built to Spill and Iron & Wine, respectively, will open the show and third nights at the Hollywood Bowl.

“I know for a fact I will never have a year again like 2003,” Gibbard said in a statement. “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.”

While Death Cab has put out new music as recently as September with their latest album, Asphalt Meadows, The Postal Service have only ever put out one studio LP and a 2014 live album titled Everything Will Change. Revisit our recent interview with Gibbard and Harmer about the latest Death Cab release here.

Prior to their co-headlining tour with The Postal Service, DCFC embark on a previously announced 2023 tour that includes dates in North America and Europe.
