Led by singer-songwriter Chris Carrabba, Dashboard Confessional began in 2000 as a vehicle for the artist’s intimately personal acoustic-based songs and as a side project from his previous band, Further Seems Forever.  He recorded his first album, Swiss Army Romance, that same year, and followed it with his sophomore album, the Gold-selling The Place You Have Come To Fear The Most, in 2001. 

With three additional musicians joining Carrabba in 2002, Dashboard Confessional was now a full band, and a hugely popular appearance on MTV’s Unplugged and the release of their third album, the Platinum-selling A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar (which reached #2 on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart), cemented their stature as one of America’s most popular bands.  In the summer of 2004, Dashboard Confessional’s song “Vindicated” was featured in the film Spider-Man 2 and on the film’s soundtrack album.  The band reached further heights with the 2006 release of Dusk and Summer and The Shade Of Poison Trees in 2007.

“Even Now” is a brand new recording from Dashboard Confessional, and available only on NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack.  The song will be featured in an upcoming Season 6 episode of NCIS in 2009.
