As of this week, 8x GRAMMY® Award-nominated rock band Death Cab for Cutie has officially reached #1 at Alternative radio with current single “Here to Forever.” The track has swiftly ascended the charts since its mid-summer release, having just capped off a tremendous 9-week #1 run at AAA – the longest such run this year for any song at the format.
Today, the indie veterans have also announced new dates for their Asphalt Meadows headline tour, by way of a show in Knoxville added for February 2023, plus an additional run of US and Canadian dates set for next May/June. These spring dates kick off May 31 in Indianapolis and include stops in Cleveland, Vancouver, and Toronto, before culminating in Bend, Oregon on June 17 (full routing enclosed).
Presales for this run begin tomorrow, Wednesday, October 19 at 10am (local), and general on-sale begins Friday, October 21 at 10am (local) – tickets + additional information available here.
Death Cab for Cutie’s highly-anticipated tenth studio album Asphalt Meadows – out now on Atlantic Records – was released to widespread critical acclaim on September 16. Produced by GRAMMY® Award-winner John Congleton (St. Vincent, Sharon Van Etten, Wallows), the LP has earned tremendous praise from outlets including The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Vulture, SPIN, Stereogum, and Pitchfork, who in their album review lauded Asphalt Meadows as “...a restoration of their creative momentum when a mere ‘return to form’ would have sufficed.”
Death Cab for Cutie is currently celebrating their 10th studio album on the Fall 2022 leg of their Asphalt Meadows headline tour. This Friday, October 21, the band will make their much-anticipated return to LA’s Greek Theatre. The tour has included stops in Chicago, Boston, and at New York’s Forest Hills Stadium, and will culminate with a sold-out, two-night hometown finale at Seattle, WA’s Paramount Theatre on October 26 and 27.
