/DELIVERABLES

Debuting in 2003, The Postal Service is a long-distance, indie-electronic collaboration between Ben Gibbard (singer for Death Cab for Cutie) and Jimmy Tamborello (Dntel). Their namesake comes from the courier service that they frequently used to trade song ideas while living in different locations.

β€œGive Up” is The Postal Service’s 1st album and was released on February 19, 2003 through Sub Pop Records. To this day, β€œGive Up” is the only studio album by the duo.
