According to a recent announcement from the band, Death Cab for Cutie are heading back on the road with a major North American summer tour and a new label home. The group confirmed they have signed with ANTI- Records, marking their first label change in over two decades and a return to their independent roots after a prolific run with Atlantic.
The tour is set to begin July 10, 2026, in Minneapolis and will feature an impressive rotation of supporting acts, including Japanese Breakfast, Nation of Language, and Jay Som. The trek includes a two-night stand at the iconic Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, continuing the band’s tradition of balancing massive amphitheater shows with more intimate, atmospheric venues.
In a statement, frontman Ben Gibbard pointed to creative alignment as a key factor behind the move to ANTI-, a label known for its artist-first ethos. For fans, the immediate focus is the upcoming ticket window: artist presales begin Wednesday, January 28, at 10:00 AM local time, with the general public sale following on Friday, January 30.
