death Cab For Cutie, supporting a brand new album due in May, has lined up more dates for its first live outing in more than a year and a half.
As previously reported, the headlining run kicks off April 18 in Bremerton, WA, close to home for the Seattle-based outfit. New dates for the outing come in May, starting May 9 in Providence, RI, and the 12-city trek includes a May 25 slot at George, WA's Sasquatch! Festival.
"Narrow Stairs," the group's first studio effort since 2005's Grammy-nominated "Plans," will hit stores May 13. The album--the band's second major label release--was produced by Death Cab's guitarist, Chris Walla; a streaming version of the just-released lead single, "I Will Possess Your Heart," can be found at the band's MySpace page.
"I hope this album is a bit of a surprise for those out there that think they have us all figured out," bassist Nick Harmer said in a press statement. "We can't wait to share these songs with the world."
