Death Cab For Cutie collaborating w/ Magik*Magik Orchestra on 2012 tour w/Youth Lagoon (dates)

Death Cab for Cutie at Williamsburg Waterfront (more by Dominick Mastrangelo)

Death Cab For Cutie have just announced a tour that will take place this spring. The tour will see the band being joined on stage by San Francisco’s Magik*Magik Orchestra (who often work with John Vanderslice too). All dates are listed below.

The tour hits the NYC-area on April 24 at State Theatre in New Brunswick, NJ and (UPDATE: the initial dates Death Cab sent out have changed, and now there’s no NJ show) at Beacon Theatre on April 27. The Beacon Theatre show, as well as every other North American date from 4/27 to the band’s culminating hometown show at Seattle’s Paramount Theatre (5/13) will be opened by Youth Lagoon, who has a headlining tour of his own that hits NYC for two sold out shows on 3/27 at Bowery Ballroom with Dana Buoy (of Akron/Family) and 4/28 at MHOW.

Fan Club pre-sale for all dates on the tour begins Friday (1/20) at noon and includes regular pre-sale tickets and the option for a limited number of DCFC t-shirt and poster bundles. Tickets for the Beacon Theatre show go on sale Friday, 1/27 at noon.

In other news, Death Cab’s recent taping at Brooklyn Museum for the PBS series Live from the Artist’s Den, will begin airing on PBS February 17.
