Switchfoot New Single Announced

With the success of their first single "Mess of Me" fresh in their minds, Switchfoot has announced that their new single will be The Sound. Here is the message they sent their fans:

Thanks to all of you who helped get 'Mess Of Me' to #12 on the

Alternative Rock Chart. This is a tremendous accomplishment, and you all played a huge role in the song's success.Our next single is going to be "The Sound (John M. Perkins' Blues)", and the official release date at radio is April 26th. Here's what Jon

had to say about the song: "The Sound (John Perkin's Blues) is a very important song

for us as a band. I see so much hatred and fear around me, I see so many people living

out their pain. I hear it on the radio. I see it in the headlines. John Perkin's story needs

to be heard. This song was inspired by a man who sang a louder song than hatred. In

a world where we are defined by our differences, Mr. Perkin's life of service and

compassion is a tangible demonstration of what it means to live a life of love. Love is

the loudest song we could sing. Louder than racism. Louder than fear. Louder than

hatred. John Perkin's said it right, love is the final fight. We're excited to hear this song

on the radio, louder than pain." Let's do this!

And here is the video for that single:
