Death Cab For Cutie Attempt Live Music Video

In the band’s upcoming video for new single “You Are a Tourist” off of their album Codes and Keys to be released on May 31st, Death Cab For Cutie has plans to shoot a music video live and in one-take. Watch it all go down here on Tuesday, April 5th 7PM EST. The music video will be directed by Tom Nackashi who has previously worked with Radiohead and TV on the Radio.

I’m not even sure if I can imagine what this will even look like, but it doesn’t surprise me one bit.

Death Cab For Cutie Hits The Road to Promote Seventh Album

I know that I should be excited to see a WA date on this list, but I’m not because it’s Sasquatch and it’s already sold out. I would love to see Death Cab in a setting outside of a music festival and I think that’s the first time I’ve ever said that about any band.

*The band is looking to extend its North American tour after they hit up Europe this summer. There will be limited pre-sale tickets available to fan club members March 24 while general public tickets can be purchased March 26.

Their album Codes and Keys will be released on May 31.
