Death Cab for Cutie is the latest artist to guest on NPR’s Tiny Desk performance series.
Ben Gibbard and company set up behind the titular tiny desk and began the set with “Pep Talk” and “Stone Over Water,” two tracks off the new Death Cab album, I Built You a Tower.
They then pulled out 2003’s Transatlanticism cut “Title and Registration” before closing with the hit “Soul Meets Body” off 2005’s Plans.
You can watch Death Cab’s Tiny Desk performance on YouTube.
Death Cab for Cutie wrapped a U.S. tour in support of I Built You a Tower over the weekend at San Francisco’s Outside Lands festival. They’ll be headlining the Bumbershoot festival in Seattle in September and will be opening for Twenty One Pilots’ Ohio Stadium show in October.
