"Underneath The Sycamore" sits on Codes and Keys, Death Cab for Cutie's seventh album, released in May 2011, and it's a two-man writing job: Benjamin Gibbard and Chris Walla share the credit, and Walla produced it. Alan Moulder mixed the track, with John Catlin and Catherine Marks assisting.
Going in, Gibbard and Nick Harmer both promised a record that would lean on guitars less than anything the band had made before. The album got a full early stream on NPR ahead of its release, debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and went on to a Grammy nomination for Best Alternative Music Album.
