Death Cab for Cutie’s Nick Harmer on I Built You A Tower and the band’s legacy
Three decades into a career that’s quietly shaped the emotional vocabulary of modern guitar music, Death Cab for Cutie find themselves in a rare position. They’re still here. Still functional. Still making records that matter, for people that love them. For bassist Nick Harmer, that simple fact – survival, in all its mundane and miraculous forms – has become the real measure of success.

Interview: ‘Life Is Bliss’ For Gallus
I had the pleasure of speaking with Gianluca Bernacchi and Barry Dolan from Gallus about their upcoming album ‘Life Is Bliss’, their biggest tour yet, packed lunches, the delights of Milton Keynes, and the importance of their Glaswegian identity.
