With the release of his fourth full-length album Dusk and Summer, the Boca Raton, Florida resident is no longer simply an up-and-coming musician; he’s a career artist. Dusk is certainly the most defining album of what has already been a remarkable career; on one end, it’s a return to the full band sound of Carrabba’s earliest, pre-Dashboard work, and yet also the most forward-thinking and innovative record he’s ever recorded.
“When I started Dashboard six years ago, I was reacting to these other bands I had been in,” says Carrabba, referring to his time in the bands the Vacant Andys and Further Seems Forever. “At the time, I needed something…simpler.” If those bands were about being loud and filling a room, Carrabba’s instinct was to strip it all down and let his voice and his guitar carry the emotions.
It was a smart, and life-changing, idea. After recording an EP (Drowning), Carrabba released his debut full-length The Swiss Army Romance in 2000.
Carrabba¹s acoustic yearnings found a home with the punk and indie rock crowd. A year of constant touring led to bigger shows, better opening slots and the sense that something bigger was coming.
With Dashboard Confessional releasing a new album on November 10th, I figured I’d get you prepared.
We have some bad news
We have some bad news. Due to a family situation that is beyond our control, we have to cancel our upcoming tour with New Found Glory, Never Shout Never, Meg & Dia and Single File (we are still playing with the Louisville Orchestra on November 7th). We don’t take this lightly but family has to come first. As this is a last minute development, we are still figuring out what we will do- as soon as we know, you will know. We apologize to everyone who planned on coming to the shows. We will find a way to make it up to you.
—Chris, John, Scott, Mike / Dashboard Confessional
