Benjamin Gibbard: Mastermind Behind Two Musical Giants

Benjamin Gibbard is the driving force behind both bands. His ability to seamlessly transition between The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie showcases his diverse musical talent.

With The Postal Service, Gibbard, alongside Jenny Lewis and Jimmy Tamborello (Dntel), revives the essence of their sole studio album, Give Up, a 2003 release that blended indie rock with electronic elements, creating a sound that was ahead of its time.

Death Cab for Cutie, comprising Gibbard, Nick Harmer, Dave Depper, Zac Rae, and Jason McGerr, brings to the stage Transatlanticism. This album, also from 2003, is a landmark in indie rock, celebrated for its introspective storytelling and innovative compositions. Watch Death Cab for Cutie and the Postal Service cover a Depeche Mode classic.

Live Legends: Give Up and Transatlanticism Take the Stage

This tour is more than a series of concerts; it’s a celebration of two iconic albums. Give Up, with its electronic beats, offers a perfect counterpoint to the guitar-centric, soul-searching melodies of Transatlanticism. The contrast between these albums highlights Gibbard’s unique ability to navigate diverse musical landscapes.
