Death Cab For Cutie performs A Movie Script Ending live at Beacon Theater
On April 28, 2012, Death Cab for Cutie delivered a stunning performance of "A Movie Script Ending" at the Beacon Theatre in New York City, accompanied by the Magik*Magik Orchestra. At that point in their career, they had recently released their sixth studio album, "Codes and Keys," which came out in 2011 and showcased a more polished sound. This period marked a significant evolution for the band, transitioning to a more expansive orchestral arrangement in their music, as exemplified by the live recording. Interestingly, "A Movie Script Ending" is from their earlier album "Something About Airplanes" (1998), showcasing the timeless quality of their songwriting that resonates with audiences even years later. The lush arrangements in this live performance create an emotional depth that reflects the band's growth and their ambitions to explore new sonic landscapes.
