Switchfoot Wraps Up Sell-Out European Tour

|PIC1|Just back from a sell-out concert run through Europe, popular rock band Switchfoot now prepares to embark on a 41-city "Oh! GravityTour" of the United States and Canada.

The tour kicks off February 13 with another sell-out show at the House of Blues in Anaheim, California.

During the European tour, the band, who are popular among the Christian community for their spiritually-yearning songs and their humble "backstage" presence, enchanted heated concertgoers with old and new songs.

Lead singer Jonathan Foreman shares with Christian Today: "It's something to be thankful for. You can come half-way around the world and you have people singing along. That's an honour."

Fans looking forward to a local Switchfoot appearance in the upcoming tour can now actually vote online for the songs they'd like to hear when the five-man band comes to their town.

Posting at Switchfoot.com, lead singer Jonathan Foreman writes, "As a way of saying, 'thank you!' to everyone who has joined into the conversation with our music over the years we're going to be openly democratic about our set-list. So pick a song any song and we'll see what happens. If something's not on the list, you can still vote for it, we'll learn it if we can!"

With a knack for tasteful song covers, the band recently turned heads with their creative rendition of "Crazy in Love", a hit originally for Beyoncé.

Switchfoot's latest album Oh! Gravity. has been critically acclaimed worldwide, with the Associated Press calling it "an outstanding record in every sense."

Their previous album The Beautiful Letdown went double-platinum in 2004.
