Watch Death Cab For Cutie’s Black Cab Session (Stereogum Premiere)
Death Cab For Cutie are busy traveling the world in support of Kintsugi, their final album with founding member and production maestro Chris Walla and first with an outside producer, Rich Costey. The newfangled Death Cab live band has North American dates coming this fall, but they were recently in the UK, where Ben Gibbard recorded a Black Cab Session — Black Cab For Cutie, if you will. Below, check out Gibbard performing a stripped-down solo version of “The Ghosts Of Beverly Drive,” a song we originally premiered as part of our Death Cab cover story.
