Death Cab For Cutie Announce ‘The Blue EP,’ Release Lead Single

Alternative rock band Death Cab For Cutie have revealed the release date and tracklist of their forthcoming EP, titled The Blue EP.

The band also shared the lead single from the EP, “Kids In ’99,” which bemoans the three young lives that were lost as a result of the 1999 Olympic Pipeline explosion that occurred in their hometown of Bellingham, Washington.

“The Olympic Pipeline explosion in 1999 was a tragedy that really affected me while we were living in Bellingham,” said frontman, Benjamin Gibbard. “After all these years I felt it was worthy of its own folk song.”

The 5-track EP, which follows the band’s 2018 studio album, Thank You for Today, is set for release on September 6.

The Blue EP:

1. “To The Ground”
