Death Cab for Cutie

In the summer of 2008, Death Cab for Cutie was basking in the success of their album "Narrow Stairs," which was released just a few months prior in May. As they performed live at the Esplanade Concert Hall in Singapore on August 12, they were riding high on the album's popularity, particularly the hit single "I Will Follow You Into the Dark." It’s interesting to note that "Narrow Stairs" marked a significant moment for the band, reaching number one on the Billboard 200. The live performance of "Transatlanticism" during their encore was a heartfelt reminder of their earlier work, showcasing their evolution while giving fans a taste of nostalgia. This song has often resonated deeply with audiences, encapsulating feelings of longing and distance, fitting perfectly with the intimate vibe of the venue.
