Ben Gibbard and Jimmy Tamborello a/k/a The Postal Service have added nine worldwide headline dates to what now appears to be a full-on reunion tour–five that take place leading up to and around their previously announced April 13 and 20 Coachella appearances, two UK shows and one in Paris leading up to their performance at Barcelona’s Primavera Soundwave festival, and a long awaited return to New York where they’ll headline Brooklyn’s Barclay Center June 14.
Tickets for the newly announced dates are in sale now at HERE.
Gibbard and Tamborello will be reuniting on the road with a band fleshed out by Jenny Lewis (Jenny & Johnny, Rilo Kiley) and Laura Burhenn (Mynabirds, Bright Eyes) to celebrate the 10th anniversary and deluxe edition reissue of The Postal Service’s universally acclaimed release, Give Up. The Give Up Deluxe 10th Anniversary Edition out April 9 on Sub Pop includes the original 10-track album along with 15 bonus tracks–including the brand new songs “Turn Around” and “A Tattered Line of String,” a previously unreleased live recording, and every other official recording the band has ever released-as well as cover versions of Postal Service classics by The Shins and Iron & Wine.
