First up is Dashboard Confessional frontman Chris Carrabba, who MTV has selected to oversee the scoring of an upcoming episode of Laguna. Carrabba has chosen four songs to be included in the show: "Ageless Beauty" by Stars, "This Isn't Farmlife" by Essex Green, "Lloyd I'm Ready to be Heartbroken" by Camera Obscura and "Pin Your Wings" by Copeland. Of course, one of Dashboard's own songs, "Currents," will also be heard during the episode.
This won't be the first time Carrabba's music has been featured on the show - Dashboard songs have been played during several previous episodes.
"In an era where everyone makes playlists and mixtapes, it's just a hair cooler to do it to something with visuals," Carrabba told Billboard.com.
Meanwhile, MTV's director of music creative and licensing Joe Cuello said, "We want kids to know that he collaborated on the sound of the show and influenced how it feels."
