Perpetual indie rock darlings Death Cab for Cutie have recently announced, perhaps somewhat low key, that they’ll be returning to our shores early in 2009, nay six months since their previous visit. Given there hasn’t been a new album in the ensuing time, we can only assume it’s a tour to celebrate Ben Gibbard’s recent engagement.
Death Cab have a run of dates across Australia in February from the 19th to the 28th and at this stage are ably supported by Youth Group, though one suspects they may add a local support at each stop.
In Perth, the band plays the wonderful Fremantle Arts Centre south lawn as an outdoor venue and tickets are avaialble here.
