“Blue Bloods” and “Kids in ‘99” both received production from Katis (The National, Interpol, Kurt Vile), while “To The Ground” and “Before The Bombs” were produced by Rich Costey during the recording sessions for the band’s critically acclaimed ninth studio album, Thank You for Today and held for this planned subsequent EP. Rounding out the project, “Man in Blue” was self-produced by the band.
Death Cab for Cutie recently wrapped the latest leg of their summer headline tour, including their first appearance at Lollapalooza since 2006, as well as performances at iconic venues from New York’s Forest Hills to LA’s Hollywood Bowl, and a sold-out show at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre. The final leg of the tour will include a pair of highly anticipated homecoming shows this weekend at Washington’s Marymoor Park (with support from fellow Seattle natives Car Seat Headrest), as well as Sonoma Harvest Music Festival and other stops throughout California, Oregon, and British Columbia.
