Dashboard Confessional

added 01 September 2003 at 14.11

Alternative rock outfit Dashboard Confessional came all the way from Boca Raton, Florida to play for Xfm, combining uncomplicated acoustics with zealous wordplay to make the perfect set.

Dashboard Confessional [Dial-Up] [Broadband]

Dashboard Confessional - a.k.a. Chris Carraba - came by the Xfm studios to deliver a rare acoustic rendition of some of the finest moments from recently released third album 'A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar'. Carraba's heartbroken torchsongs, usually delivered over squalling guitars, have made his name in the States but the breathless, frantic likes of 'Hands Down' [Dial-Up] [Broadband] and the beautiful 'As Lovers Go' [Dial-Up] [Broadband] have only just started to turn heads over here. It won't last; with songs as strong as today's set closer 'The Ghost of A Good Thing' [Dial-Up] [Broadband] Dashboard Confessional will soon be soundtracking every English heartbreak.
