After a decade of intellect, integrity and songs that lift the soul and open the eyes, Switchfoot have earned the right to wave their accomplishments about a bit. ‘The Best Yet’ does just that –and more.
With five albums behind them and a stack of accolades and awards, Switchfoot have had plenty of best bits to choose from. What the band have settled on are eighteen songs that highlight perfectly why it is that these five guys from San Diego have moved in and settled down in the hearts and minds of millions of fans across the globe.
‘The Best Yet’ includes their massive hits ‘Meant To Live’ and ‘Dare You To Move’, as well as the radio successes ‘Stars’, ‘Oh! Gravity.’, ‘Awakening’ and ‘This Is Your Life’. Other numbers are the superb ‘The Shadow Proves The Sunshine’, ‘Company Car’ and ‘This Is Home’ – a track featured on the soundtrack to The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. Then there’s the Deluxe edition of the album, a CD/DVD package featuring 14 music videos and band commentray. Includes video favourites like ‘Stars’, ‘Dare You To Move’ and ‘Meant To Live’ along with some rarities spanning Switchfoots career.
Lastly, Jon Foreman (Switchfoots front man) will be performing at The Stand on 8 November along with Delirious?, Tim Hughes, YFriday, bandwithnoname, Bluetree and talks from Steve Chalke, Andy Hawthorn and Baroness Cox.
