The Postal Service is an American electronic indie pop band. Band consists of singer Ben Gibbard known from Death Cab for Cutie – vocals, lyrics, guitar, keyboard, electric piano, drums; and producer Jimmy Tamborello of Dntel, Headset and Figurine – programming, accordion, keyboard;. Several songs on their first LP, Give Up, feature guest vocals and backing vocals from Jenny Lewis, solo artist and the lead singer of Rilo Kiley, as well as vocals and backing vocalsfrom Jen Wood, an indie rock musician. Chris Walla produced the album and played the guitar and piano on several tracks.
The name “Postal Service” was chosen due to the way in which the band produced their songs. Jimmy would write the music then send DAT tapes to Ben, who would edit the song as he saw fit, adding his vocals along the way, and send them back to Jimmy via “Postal Service”.
