Today begins the epic 3-day weekend launch of Summer. I for one will be firing up the grill!

ARTIST OF THE DAY
Switchfoot




I grew up listening to Switchfoot. The San Diego band debuted in the Mid-90s with Legend of Chin and their hit song Chem 6-A immediately became an anthem for my youth group. Riding the tide of a growing Christian rock scene, Switchfoot continued to release amazing albums and they got noticed by big wigs in the music industry.

Two songs from their album Learning To Breathe were picked up for the soundtrack of the hit movie A Walk To Remember. In fact, Mandy Moore who stars in the movie, performed the Switchfoot song Only Hope. (Which my wife and I used in our wedding)

The name "Switchfoot" is a surfing term. Lead singer/songwriter Jon Foreman says "We all love to surf and have been surfing all our lives so to us, the name made sense. To switch your feet means to take a new stance facing the opposite direction. It's about change and movement, a different way of approaching life and music."

Latest Album: Hello Hurricane
