Biography

In the early 2000s, singer/songwriter Christopher Carrabba transitioned from his post-hardcore band Further Seems Forever to focus on his vulnerable solo project, Dashboard Confessional. With heartfelt acoustic musings and soul-baring lyrics, Carrabba quickly became a key figure in the emo genre. Dashboard Confessional's peak came with albums like A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar (2003) and Dusk and Summer (2006), before taking a hiatus and returning with Crooked Shadows in 2018. Despite setbacks like a motorcycle accident and the COVID-19 pandemic, Carrabba released All the Truth That I Can Tell in 2022, showcasing a return to the intimate sound that defined his early work.

Originating in Boca Raton, Florida, Dashboard Confessional was born out of Carrabba's desire for a simpler musical expression. Starting with the debut Swiss Army Romance in 2000, Carrabba's emotionally raw lyrics and acoustic melodies drew a dedicated following. After transitioning to a full band, Dashboard Confessional found commercial success with hits like "Hands Down" and "Vindicated." Following a hiatus, the band re-emerged with Crooked Shadows in 2018 and continued to evolve, culminating in the introspective 2022 release, All the Truth That I Can Tell, produced by James Paul Wisner. Despite challenges, Dashboard Confessional remains a respected veteran in the music scene, celebrated for their earnest and timeless tracks.

Dashboard Confessional is a clear fit for 25-34 & 18-24 audiences with strength across UNITED STATES, PHILIPPINES, INDONESIA. The audience is heavily male (59%), so messaging can confidently lean into identity, fashion, and status.

Affinity data highlights Live Nation, Peloton, Warby Parker, suggesting immediate traction in streetwear, music platforms, and lifestyle products. The upside is culture-first creative with measurable lift.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low
How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
