Switchfoot impressive at Wonderland 2010

For up to date (most of the time) news and original opinions before they hit the update, follow us on Twitter!

Switchfoot played the Wonderjam festival in Toronto, Canada over the weekend, and they were rock solid once again. Here's what our friend Jessica had to say about the event:

"Switchfoot rocked at Wonderland (Vaughn, Canada) yesterday.. there was a suprise meet and greet (FOTF and fans too!) They played a lot of tracks from Hello Hurricane along with faves..but they didn't track any new songs. They were heard in the morning of the park, soundchecking Bullet Soul."


^Thanks Jessica!

Over the weekend, Switchfoot's songs have been all over Alternative Addiction radio. Check out their Top 10 most requested page:



Looks like the listeners are really digging "The Sound" and "Your Love Is a Song."

Let's push these two songs to the top! Head over to the Alternative Addiction request page and request both songs now!

Also, "The Sound" is currently sitting at No. 5 on RateTheMusic.com's Alternative survey. That's huge, as these results get sent to record label executives.



Let's get it even higher! See below for instructions:

Don't forget that Footsoldiers HQ has a new daily mission posted. Head over now to join in, but I've posted it here too. We need all the help we can get, friends!

Hey friends. I thought we should start a radio poll thread in which we all share voting links for the two current Switchfoot radio singles: “The Sound” and “Your Love Is a Song.”

Currently, we have the following:

“The Sound”

+FM 1021 in Milwaukee
+Ratethemusic.com

1. Sign up for an account on Ratethemusic.com. Be sure to indicate that your favorite music style is “Alternative”
2. There will be a list of songs that you flip through and rate on three scales: how familiar you are with the song, how much you like it, and whether or not you’re tired of hearing it on the radio. Once you reach “The Sound,” be sure to say you are familiar with the song, love it, and are not tired of hearing it on the radio

+Sirius Alt Nation

“Your Love Is a Song”

+Alternative Addiction (bonus: fill-in vote for The Sound)

If we all fill these polls out every day, we can do some damage.

So if anyone finds any other polls (online or otherwise) for us to vote on or call in and request, let us know, and we’ll add it to the list. Let’s do this, Footsoldiers!


We'll have the results in for each of these different polls as soon as we get news! Have a great Monday!
