Dashboard Confessional frontman Chris Carrabba launching another musical project at SXSW?

Dashboard Confessional and Further Seems Forever frontman Chris Carrabba is no stranger to wearing multiple musical hats. In fact, it was his initial transition from Further Seems Forever into Dashboard Confessional that brought his name to the forefront of many of our then-young minds. Now it seems Carrabba is planning to launch another new project, and UTG has gathered together every detail we could find.

Near the tail end of last week, SXSW launched their official music schedule. According to this post, Chris Carrabba will be performing on Friday and Saturday night as part of a new group known as Twin Falls. We tried to search on the site for further information, but the official band page turned out to be nothing more than a quick bio on Carrabba’s other efforts.

Facing the problem of a familiar face attached to an unfamiliar name, we turned to Google for help. However, after scrolling back a few pages and attempting multiple versions of the same search it became alarmingly clear that not only has this band not performed before, but they’re virtually unknown online.

We are currently reaching out for more information regarding Twin Falls, but knowing Carrabba it is unlikely anything additional will leak before he’s ready to go public.

I think I ignored how awful his voice was because I found him attractive. His face looks so different now, though.

I could never really get into DC but I loved FSF. I always knew his voice was way too nasal but I appreciated his lyrics. Hands Down makes me lol, even though I love it.

I don't think he's bad but in the album version of This Bitter Pill where he's like screaming and his voice sounds all dry and cracking ... what the fuck was that?

I find him way too whiny for my liking

mementox 19th-Feb-2013 05:34 am (UTC)

In tenth grade my boyfriend (of a month) broke up with me so I listened to "Screaming Infidelities" on repeat and sobbed after school everyday for like 3 months. I still can't listen to that shit ;(

kurtvonnegut 19th-Feb-2013 05:35 am (UTC)

your hair is everywhere

screaming infidelities

mementox 19th-Feb-2013 05:42 am (UTC)

Creying and wiping my eyes with my emo sidebangs rn :(

heyx_lyla 19th-Feb-2013 08:32 am (UTC)

Change it to 11th grade and this is EXACTLY me.

iamalreadyinuse 19th-Feb-2013 05:35 am (UTC)

Hands Down is a perfect song and anybody who tells me different hates puppies.

redaodai 19th-Feb-2013 05:37 am (UTC)

I kind of love that song.

ztrellitaa 19th-Feb-2013 05:42 am (UTC)

It made me feel so good when someone dedicated it to me.

actxappalledx 19th-Feb-2013 05:43 am (UTC)

lmao yas i still love that song, i d e c

the words are hushed; let's not get busted. just lay entwined here, undiscovered. safe in here from all the stupid questions - "hey, did you get some?" man, that is so dumb. stay quiet, stay near, stay close, they can't hear... so we can get some

im_a_lewser 19th-Feb-2013 08:38 am (UTC)

I will forever love this song and this band because I have so many good memories attached to them...especially this song. Ah, nostalgia.

coulson 19th-Feb-2013 02:11 pm (UTC)

agreed

violue 19th-Feb-2013 05:36 am (UTC)

I wonder what happened to my Dashboard Confessional tshirt from 10 years ago. I didn't throw it away. WHERE DID IT GO?

beetlebums 19th-Feb-2013 05:51 am (UTC)

It's for the best

woahjen 19th-Feb-2013 05:36 am (UTC)

I used to love DC when I was in high school. "Hands Down" played in the background during my first serious make-out session.

...memories

It's hilarious how so many people hooked up/ got laid to that song.

mementox 19th-Feb-2013 05:43 am (UTC)

I still love that song

amore 19th-Feb-2013 05:43 am (UTC)

oh man i loved that band lol

ztrellitaa 19th-Feb-2013 05:44 am (UTC)

I haven't heard DC for so long, cause I know that it won't be the same as when I was a teen. I remember being in love with their unplugged cd.

Also, I think some of Bright Eyes emo songs hold so much better than DC's.

kurtvonnegut 19th-Feb-2013 05:46 am (UTC)

bright eyes was overdramatic in the early days but i think the reason conor o's songs age so much better is that he clearly had mental issues when all these pop punk guys were just playing sad for the sake of dramatic lyrics? if that makes sense

ztrellitaa 19th-Feb-2013 05:57 am (UTC)

Yeah, I can hear a depression that isn't directly related to lovesick heartbreak, that I can still identify with. While DC and other emo songs just filled my teen angst love bullshit.

I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning is still one of my fave albums ever. Although Lifted or The Story is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground and Fever and Mirrors are also extremely good imo.

Oh man, Conor Oberst. Sighs. Digital Ash in a Digital Urn was my fave.

classic_mold137 19th-Feb-2013 06:46 am (UTC)

I'm going to be honest- I still love I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning a lot.

actxappalledx 19th-Feb-2013 05:45 am (UTC)

lol i looveed Dashboard when I was all emoed out in high school with my side bangs and pink highlights. Don't listen to them anymore, but I will say that Chris Carrabba is looking fine still

swear I knew it all alooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong

redaodai 19th-Feb-2013 05:46 am (UTC)

I just listened to "Hands Down". Now I want to listen to The All-American Rejects' first album. Oh, cheesy power pop.

violue 19th-Feb-2013 05:58 am (UTC)

I saw the All American Rejects at a concert like 10 years ago.. except I didn't really know who the fuck they were, I just went because my friends were going, and that "Swing Swing" song had been vaguely familiar.

Actually I saw DC too... again I barely knew who they were but my friends wanted to see Brand New and they were at the same concert. I got into these bands AFTER I saw them in concert and thought "fuck I wish I'd paid more attention"

Except when Chris Carrabba came out on stage I was all entranced because he reminded me of a guy I was totally into at the time... short and full of emo pain.
