Dashboard Julien Baker

listen to Dashboard Confessional cover Julien Baker and Sorority Noise

Dashboard Confessional is currently in NYC, playing three sold-out Irving Plaza shows starting tonight (1/19), as well as a solo acoustic midnight show at Knitting Factory Brooklyn tonight (all four are sold out). He also just surprised-released a covers EP.

If you were wondering about Chris Carrabba recently hyping Julien Baker and Sorority Noise, well, he just covered both of them for his new EP. (He did “Sprained Ankle” and “Using,” respectively.) The EP also has covers of The 1975‘s “Sex” and Justin Bieber‘s “Love Yourself.” (If you feel like Bieber is out of place here, consider that that song kinda already sounds like a Dashboard Confessional song.) Listen to the whole thing below.

This makes Dashboard Confessional the second popular ’00s emo band to cover “Sprained Ankle,” after (former Dashboard tourmates) Brand New.

Sorority Noise released a new song today off their upcoming Mike Sapone-produced album, You’re Not As _____ As You Think, due March 17. They’re touring this spring with Modern Baseball and Kevin Devine.

Julien Baker recently signed to Matador and released a new single.
