Dashboard Confessional have announced plans for a North American tour. The run comes in support of Crooked Shadows, which is their first in eight years. It kicks off March 20th in Houston, Texas and concludes April 21st in Los Angeles. Chris Carrabba spoke on the band’s lead single “We Fight,” noting: “I thought for sure it was just about how I found a place in the world, which was worth fighting for, which was the music scene that I come from,” Carrabba told Beats 1’s Zane Lowe. “I wasn’t cool in school. I didn’t fit in. I found this music scene and it fostered this community and it fostered the people in it. . But then the political climate has changed in such a way that, almost days after writing that song, America started to feel really regressive somehow. And all these great strides we made during the last administration had been threatened to be undone and I realized that people have beliefs worth protecting, worth standing up for and I found a residence in that.” Dashboard Confessional Tour Dates December 4 – Salt Lake City, UT @ The Complex (X96 Toyota Nightmare Before Xmas) December 6 – Tulsa, OK @ Brady Theater (The Edge Christmas Concert) December 7 – Saint Louis, MO @ Delmar Hall (105.7 The Point HoHo Show) January 27 – Philadelphia, PA @ XFINITY Live!
