Bio
The alternative rock outfit Dashboard Confessional hails from Boca Raton, FL, and is chiefed by singer/songwriter Christopher Carraba. Marking his first solo effort with the release of The Swiss Army Romance, Carraba also fronted other rock bands such as Further Seems Forever and the Vacant Andies. Dashboard Confessional allows Carraba to mold simple acoustics with passionate wordplay to make for a delightful introduction to his individual work. Both the Drowning EP and the second full-length Places You Have Come to Fear the Most were issued in early 2001. Pop kids of the TRL generation united for Dashboard Confessional's emocore style, for 2001 proved golden for Carraba. "Screaming Infidelities" became a modern rock hit and a joint tour with The Weakerthans was also a monumental move for Dashboard Confessional. The Vagrant Across America tour in summer 2001 with labelmates No Motiv, Hot Rod Circuit and lkaline Trio pushed Dashboard Confessional's further into the spotl ight while proving that this punk-revival thing wasn't a fluke. With the buzz still on, the lovelorn So Impossible EP was released in early 2002. Sunny Day Real Estate's Dan Hoerner also joined Carraba for what was now a duo.
