The original members (Jon and Tim Foreman and Chad Butler) of Switchfoot played a few shows then were signed to RE: Think Records, where they recorded their first three albums. Switchfoot did not get much recognition until 2002 when four of their songs were featured on the movie A Walk To Remember starring singer and actress Mandy Moore who sang Switchfoot’s song “Only Hope”. Switchfoot also sang three other songs in the movie: “You”, “Learning to Breath”, and “Dare You to Move”. Switchfoot has been involved in many humanitarian causes such as “DATA”, “ONE Campaign”, “Habitat For Humanity” “Invisible Children”, and “To Write Love on Her Arms”. The band also founded the “Switchfoot Bro-Am Surfing Contest” which raises money for various organizations for homeless kids. | |
