Special guest illuminati hotties set to open for Death Cab for Cutie
Eight-time Grammy-nominated Rock band Death Cab for Cutie will take the stage for one night at 7:30pm on Friday, July 15th at Mohegan Sun Arena.
Tickets are $45 and $35 and go on sale Friday, March 11th at 10:00am via ticketmaster.com. Tickets will also be available at the Mohegan Sun Box Office beginning Saturday, March 12th, subject to availability.
Death Cab for Cutie originally formed in Bellingham, Washington, in 1998. Their 2005 studio release, Plans, proved the band’s popular breakthrough, earning RIAA platinum certification, as well as spawning the chart-topping singles, “Soul Meets Body” and “I Will Follow You Into The Dark,” the latter of which was honored with a Grammy nomination for “Best Pop Performance By a Duo or Group with Vocals.” Plans also received a nod for “Best Alternative Album” at the Grammy’s. Their following albums, Narrow Stairs (2008), The Open Door (2009), Codes and Keys (2011), and Kintsugi (2015), also all received various Grammy nominations, yielding their fourth straight nomination for “Best Alternative Music Album” and bringing their nominations to eight overall.
Death Cab for Cutie’s most recent full-length release, Thank You for Today (2018), is the sound of a band both expanding and refining 22 years into its evolution, and still uncovering new curves in signatures and new sonic corners to explore. The Seattle group’s ninth studio album was heralded by lead single “Gold Rush,” which reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Adult Alternative Songs chart.
In December 2020, ahead of the run-off elections in Georgia, the band released The Georgia E.P., featuring covers of iconic artists from the state. Originally released as a 24-hour Bandcamp exclusive, the EP raised more than $100,000 for Fair Fight Action, Stacey Abrams’ voting rights organization promoting fair elections around the country through voter education, election reform, and combating voter suppression.
Throughout the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, lead vocalist and guitarist Benjamin Gibbard helped raise more than $250,000 in donations and supplies for various Seattle-area relief organizations via his series of at-home livestream performances.
Most recently in February 2022, Gibbard conceived, curated, and executive produced Ocean Child: Songs of Yoko Ono – a tribute to the acclaimed singer, songwriter, multimedia artist, and activist. Death Cab for Cutie themselves contributed a cover of “Waiting For The Sunrise,” with other artists on compilation including David Byrne, Japanese Breakfast, The Flaming Lips, and Sharon Van Etten.
Mohegan Sun Arena finished 2021 with its first “#1 Indoor Arena” ranking for its capacity in the world according to Pollstar and VenuesNow, ranked among the top 10 venues in the U.S. regardless of size based on ticket sales, and was named “2021 Innovator of the Year” by Celebrity Access for its ViacomCBS residency. In recent years, the “Most Beloved Venue in America” has also been the “#1 Casino Venue in the World,” “#1 Social Media Venue in the World” and a seven – time national award – winner for “Arena of the Year.” For more information on concerts and other great events, visit Mohegan Sun.

The band released their debut set Dreaming Out Loud in 2007. The release included the 20mm selling smash single “Apologize,” which shattered digital sales and airplay records worldwide and received a Grammy nomination. The band’s sophomore album, 2009’s Waking Up, produced the hit singles “All the Right Moves,” “Secrets” and “Good Life.” The certified-platinum album Native followed in 2013, featuring the No.1 hit and 41 million selling single “Counting Stars.” OneRepublic released Oh My My, their fourth full-length album in 2016.

They most recently released their new single, “West Coast” and announced their upcoming tour to kick off in July of this year.
About NEEDTOBREATHE
Since 1998, NEEDTOBREATHE have quietly emerged as a dynamic force in Rock music, topping the charts, selling out historic venues, and generating hundreds of millions of streams to date. The band have gathered one platinum single, four gold singles, and a gold album. Along the way, “Multiplied” notched their first GRAMMY® nomination. Simultaneously, they performed to sold out crowds at arenas and amphitheaters coast to coast. In addition to garnering two nods at the Billboard Music Awards, they’ve attracted acclaim from People, Rolling Stone, Forbes, and many more. In 2020, they sowed the seeds for rebirth with Out of Body. It bowed in the Top 5 of three Billboard charts and reeled in acclaim. Within weeks of its release, the quintet—Bear Rinehart [vocals, guitar], Seth Bolt [bass, vocals], Josh Lovelace [keys, vocals], Randall Harris [drums], and Tyler Burkum [guitar]—stole away to an old historic house in Columbia, TN where they lived together, ate together, laughed together, and recorded together for three weeks in the fall of 2020. They returned home with their eighth album and documentary Into The Mystery [Elektra Records]. It’s the kind of record that could only be made by a band who has been through it all and still has enough faith to keep encouraging one another. It’s NEEDTOBREATHE.
