Live At The Showbox is a 17-track collection of songs recorded over a three-night stand at the Showbox in the band's hometown of Seattle, on February 24-26, 2020, right before the COVID pandemic descended upon the world. These songs were originally released on Bandcamp for 24 hours in May 2021, and as a Record Store Day release in 2024 (on pink vinyl). This reissue on black vinyl was sold exclusively through the Death Cab for Cutie website in November 2024.A statement from the band about this recording: “Like so many other artists, we expected to play a lot of shows in 2020. To gear up for the year ahead, we decided to warm up by playing an intimate, three-night stand at a venue that's near and dear to our hearts – the Showbox in Seattle. Well, 2020 didn't quite turn out like we had planned – but happily those three magical nights in February 2020 did, and we're glad to say that we had them recorded!”
