- Release Notes

Dashboard Confessional was started in 1999, as a side project from Chris
Carrabba's (gay) venture with Florida rock band Further Seems Forever. The
name Dashboard Confessional is derived from one of his songs, "The Sharp Hint
of New Tears," which contains the line "On the way home/This car hears my
confessions." Contrary to popular belief, the name Dashboard Confessional
refers only to Carrabba, as he originally intended it to be only a solo
project. Addressing this misunderstanding, he challenged: "What rulebook says
it has to be called your name if you're one guy?" But Carrabba often brought
along friends to play live shows with him and in 2002 he decided to make the
current line-up a permanent one. Jolie Lindholm, formerly of The Rocking
Horse Winner, also provided background vocals on Chris' debut album The Swiss
Army Romance.

The current line-up includes Carrabba (vocals, guitar), John Lefler (guitar),
Scott Schoenbeck (bass) (formerly in The Promise Ring), and Mike Marsh
(drums). Both John Lefler and Mike Marsh provide background vocals. Chris'
friend and guitarist John Ralston and violinist Susan Sherouse often perform
and record with the group. As of 2006, they have released four EPs and five
full-length albums, three of which have been certified gold by the RIAA.

They won the MTV2 award at 2002's MTV Video Music Awards for their song
"Screaming Infidelities".

In May of 2005, Dashboard Confessional entered the studio to record their
fourth album with Daniel Lanois. Lanois has co-produced the albums So (Peter
Gabriel) and The Joshua Tree (U2), and produced Bob Dylan's Grammy award
winning album Time Out of Mind (Album of the Year, 1997). "Don't Wait" was
the first single released from Dashboard Confessional's latest album Dusk and
Summer, which was released on June 27, 2006. The album's second single was
"Stolen". Following the release of Dusk and Summer, Dashboard Confessional
went on a summer tour of the U.S. with special guests Say Anything and Ben
Lee. They followed this with a co-headlining arena tour with alternative rock
band Brand New.

Dashboard Confessional performed at the Brick Awards on April 12, 2007 as a
featured musical guest, in addition to playing the final show of the mtvU
Campus Invasion Tour 2007 at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia on April 29,
2007.

The band was featured on PBS' acclaimed music series Soundstage, with a
performance taped at New York's Madison Square Garden debuting on the network
July 12, 2007. The broadcast, repeated nationally over subsequent weeks,
included "Don? Wait," "Stolen," and "Screaming Infidelities".

Dashboard Confessional's Official website announced a fall 2007 North
American solo tour with special guests Augustana and John Ralston.

Dashboard Confessional announced they will be releasing their fifth studio
album on October 2nd called The Shade of Poison Trees. Currently on their
MySpace, they have posted the entire new album The Shade of Poison Trees for
streaming.

During an interview with Billboard, posted on September 11, 2007, Carrabba
stated that he is 14 tracks into what would be the sixth studio album. He is
also unsure about when it would be recorded, but plans to have 30 tracks to
draw from. It may be a concept album: "only with the last three has it
become, like, 'All right, these have a continuity and there's something going
on,' so I'm excited to see where that leads." he also stated that the album
would not be released for sometime since he has an obligation to promote The
Shade of Poison Trees.
