“Christmas is an emotional treasure chest for a songwriter to pull from,” lead singer Jon Foreman says. “It’s a season stretched tight with contradictions: celebrating the free gifts of love and grace with an outburst of materialist capitalist consumption. An emotional roller coaster of family and friends, hopes and scars bringing out the worst and the best in all of us."
Alongside the album announcement, Switchfoot announces their North American “This is Our Christmas Tour” which is also the band’s first Christmas tour. They will perform one Christmas themed set, and another set filled with the band’s hits like “Dare You To Move,” “Meant to Live” and more.
"It’s truly incredible the way music connects us all: making even strangers feel like family,” Jon Foreman says. “To celebrate this season, singing these songs together in the same room is a gift that we can’t wait to unwrap. We’re so excited to head out on our first Christmas tour ever!”
Artist pre-sale is live now; local tour pre-sales start Thursday, September 8 at 10am local time, and general tour on-sale begins Friday, September 9 at 12pm local time. See below for full routing. Purchase tickets here: https://switchfoot.com/pages/tour
