CD Review: Switchfoot “Hello Hurricane”

Switchfoot has been around since I was in middle school.  I’ve actually been a huge fan of Switchfoot since their first album released in 1997.  The journey the guys of SF have been on in the past 12 years has definitely had its ups and downs, giving them time to journey and wrestle with God while out on the road and in the studio.  

Frontman, Jon Foreman, has openly talked about how his songwriting and prayer life have become intertwined because when God speaks in his life, it is worth capturing in something beautiful.  Foreman has been very open about his faith through his recent solo ventures which has captured audience’s hearts.  So Foreman has brought that raw songwriting to the Swithfoot table and it has paid off.

Hello Hurricane is the seventh full-length album from the band and takes us back to the rawer days of SF without catchy radio hooks but with an amazing collaboration that is sure to stay playing while you do your homework, have friends over, or just need some music on.  

You don’t want to miss having this in your music collection!
