Ben Gibbard will celebrate springtime with a solo trek through the States this May. Jonathan Rice and Pedro the Lion's David Bazan will tag alongside Death Cab's favorite cutie for the 16-show ride.

Not much is happening on the Death Cab and Postal Service fronts these days, as Gibbard prepares for his feature film debut and guitarist Chris Walla prepares his solo album.

As previously reported, Death Cab contributed a performance of "Photobooth" to Pete Townshend and Rachel Fuller's "In the Attic" compilation Attic Jam. The iTunes-only release landed on February 14.
