DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE FREE DVD RELEASE PARTY

Location: Alamo South Lamar

End Of An Ear Records and Plexifilm present the DVD release party for the brand new DVD from the sensational DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE.
The DVD will be released on July 26 but we'll have it one day earlier. You can watch it on our big screen at our South Lamar theater and then be the first one on your block to own it as soon as it goes on sale at midnight.

DRIVE WELL, SLEEP CAREFULLY shows the band at the tail-end of a grueling tour, playing their remarkable pop to ecstatic live audiences. Mitchell joined the band on the road filming dozens of live performances and interviewing them in-depth in their hometown of Seattle. The stunning live footage is mixed with candid conversations about the demands of life on the road, their dedication and love for their work, and the ever-present challenge of balancing creative freedom with commercial success.
Since forming in 1997, Death Cab for Cutie has released 4 full-length albums and numerous EPs and singles on Barsuk Records. The band recently signed to Atlantic Records and their new album, PLANS, will be released this Fall.

Justin Mitchell is an LA-based filmmaker and cinematographer. SONGS FOR CASSAVETES, his debut feature documentary, was shown at the London Film Festival where the festival notes proclaimed, "[It] is that all too rare thing: a documentary feature in which form and content are perfectly attuned... A little gem, small but perfectly formed." Born in Hollywood, CA, Mitchell grew up in the Valley and moved to New York City in September of 2001, where he made his second film, DIRTY OLD TOWN. He then relocated back to the west coast and his move coincided with Death Cab for Cutie's tour, so naturally he followed them across the country, his trusty Bolex in tow.

This film is presented in a 1.33:1 aspect ratio, preserving the ratio of its original exhibition.

"Deep, thoughtful and brilliant, Death Cab for Cutie are the best independent band in the country" - NPR

"Simple, sometimes startling eloquence." - THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

"The heartstring-tugging formula...has earned the Washington state quartet its cultish following: melodic, melancholy songs about feeling both smart and confused, hopelessly romantic but wary of love." - ROLLING STONE
