Death Cab For Cutie have announced a collection of concerts for the upcoming 20th anniversary of their 2005 album ‘Plans’ – check out the full list of dates below.
Yesterday (February 11), the band took to social media to announce their plans for the 20th anniversary of their acclaimed fifth album. So far, the band have only announced four shows, during which they will perform ‘Plans’ in its entirety.
On the possibility of more shows being added, they wrote: “We are only playing a few shows in its honor as we’re currently working on our next studio album, but we would be remiss to not take the opportunity to celebrate the 20th anniversary in some fashion.”

2005’s ‘Plans’ marked Death Cab For Cutie’s major label debut, went platinum and also earned the band their first Grammy nominations.
Just last year, the band celebrated the 20th anniversary of their 2003 record ‘Transatlanticism’, which coincided with The Postal Service’s ‘Give Up”s 20th anniversary – both bands are led by Ben Gibbard.
To celebrate their respective anniversaries, Death Cab and The Postal Service‘s headlined London’s All Points East Festival on August 25, alongside dates in Cardiff, Glasgow and mainland Europe and a US tour before that. The Postal Service have since gone on indefinite hiatus.
Later this year, Death Cab For Cutie will support My Chemical Romance on the latter’s ‘Long Live The Black Parade’ tour across the US.
