Dashboard Confessional

   Have you ever heard about Dashboard Confessional? They're an Alternative Rock band from Florida, USA.

  Dashboard Confessional's first album "The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most" was released in 2001. What I like more about this great band it's their awesome acoustic songs and the great voice of Chris Carrabba.

  You can listen Dashboard Confessional HERE, at their Spotify Profile. I especially like the songs "Hands Down", "The Places That You Came to Fear the Most", "Screaming Infidelities" and " Turpentine Chaser", although is very difficult to choose the best one's since their songs are all very good.

   Dashboard Confessional's song "Vindicated" was also on the soundtrack of Spiderman 2.

  Let me show you two of Dashboard Confessional's songs, "Screaming Infidelities" and "Hands Down". I also share with you their awesome MTV Unplugged concert:

  So, I hope you liked Dashboard Confessional and I recommend you to go to their Spotify Profile and go through their songs. Please follow me at Surf Locus Facebook Page "www.facebook.com/surflocus". Have Fun!!

Barefoot Truth

   Last week I showed you the great musician and professional surfer Donavon Frankenreiter, that has many beautiful songs and a crazy surfing style.

  This week I want to show to you a very cool band: Barefoot Truth. They are an american roots rook band with beautiful jam's and acoustic songs. An unusual feature about Barefoot Truth is that their lead singer, Will Evans, is also the band drummer. He also remind me of "Shaggy" from Scooby-Doo, lol.

      Have you ever wanted to start playing guitar but always thought it's too difficult and you don't have money to invest in guitar lessons? Do you have a guitar at home that nobody touch it? 

    Let me tell you this: you can learn by yourself, there are tons of information about it around the web, you just need to take that first step. I am posting this, because I learn to play guitar by myself, watching videos on YouTube and exploring the amazing world of UltimateGuitar. 

   Music is a great part of one's life, think about it, don't you relate certain past moments to specific songs? When your sad or happy you listen to different songs, and one great song can lift up your spirit and prepare you for some task you have to accomplish.
