Are you too cool for Switchfoot?


If so, you suck. But you may like this, Switchfoot frontman Jon Foreman has teamed up with Nickel Creek's guitarist Sean Watkins. I haven't listened to the entire album yet but from what I've heard on iTunes it sounds pretty amazing. They even perform a cover of The Cure's "Friday I'm In Love," on the bonus iTunes album. They're doing a show at the Belcourt next friday by the way. Anyways I hope this gets some of you more indie obsessed jokers into the goodness that is Jon Foreman music, check out his solo albums (Fall, Winter, Spring, Summer) and obviously some good ole' Switchfoot if you aren't too smug for it. Click the photo to go to their website.

  1. I'm too cool for switchfoot. Just look at my favorite music on facebook. All independent labels. I take the feather out of my hair and throw it at Jon Foreman's face, that's what I do. Psshht. So what if it's catchy and enjoyable? It's not for me.

  6. I am in complete agreement here. I have listened to Robert's copy of Limbs and Branches a few times and was pretty blown away. The maturity of the song-making and the guest appearance of a certain sarah mason dark makes for quite the album. (Although I'm still too cool for dun-nuh-nuh... wreeeunn).
