2008 New Switchfoot Album

The new Switchfoot record will be recorded sometime in the Spring of 2008, and will be released in the Fall of 2008. This marks the first full-length release by the band after its 2007 split with their major record label, Columbia/SonyBMG. It will be released under the band's independent record label, Lowercase People Records. Charlie Peacock will be the producer on the record, along with the band itself.

Early Developments
*Word of a new record began when Switchfoot frontman Jon Foreman posted a myspace blog on July 28, 2007 that "we're tracking a few tunes for the next project this week."

*Later on August 10, 2007, the band announced its label independence, and their plans on releasing the follow-up to 2006's as an independent band. "Over the course of the next few months we are going to release several diverse projects culminating in a new switchfoot release that will redefine who we are in a new independent era," Foreman said on the band's official youtube page.

*In October, the band began contruction of their very own studio as well, and will record the new record in that studio.

*In December, Jon Foreman stated in an interview, "We have over a hundred songs to choose from right now, it really could go in a lot of directions. Right now, it's shaping up to be more acoustic AND more electronic."

*The album will be released sometime in the Fall of 2008.
