Death Cab for Cutie are set to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their 2005 album ‘Plans’ with a series of special performances across the United States in August 2025.
The band will perform ‘Plans’ in its entirety across four dedicated shows, visiting Chicago, New York, and their hometown of Seattle. The performances follow their recent ‘Transatlanticism’ anniversary tour, which took place throughout 2023-2024.
“Plans is an album that changed the trajectory of Death Cab for Cutie forever — it was our major label debut, it went platinum, and earned us our first Grammy nominations,” Ben Gibbard explains. “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.”
‘Plans’, which marked Death Cab for Cutie’s first release on Atlantic Records, features tracks including ‘Soul Meets Body’, ‘I Will Follow You into the Dark’, and ‘Crooked Teeth’.
