Switchfoot

Check out Switchfoot--my favorite band now. They rock! and (gasp!) they are Christians.
It looks like they are getting noticed:

Fuse's next big thing award for October

We have the best jobs in the world because we play music for a living and love doing it, but we didn't get into this to try and sell something. For us, it's about communicating and connecting with people on a different level." - Jon Foreman

"How God, surfing and Bono inspired this San Diego band"--RollingStone

Winner of "Album of the Year" and "Pop Album of the Year" at San Diego Music Awards

Yahoo's Launch.com emerging artist of the month for September (although links don't work for "guests" apparently)

Don't be hateful to people, just because they are hateful to you. Rather, be good to each other and to everyone else. Always be joyful and never stop praying. Whatever happens, keep thanking God because of Jesus Christ. This is what God wants you to do. --1st Thessalonians 5:15-18 CEV
