Switchfoot learns to breathe
Visitors to Manila last year, San Diego-based rock band Switchfoot has risen steadily, growing from a typical garage band to a world famous act that has sold millions of records. More interesting to note than the fact that they have a Filipino band member, is that Switchfoot always talks about looking at the more important things in life.

Named after a surfing term that means to literally “switch one’s foot” on the surf board, the band believes in turning things around and giving back. Their annual surf competition and free concert is now on its 4th year (slated for June 7th of this year) and proceeds will go to local children’s charity “Stand Up For Kids“. They have also participated in Habitat for Humanity.
