Check out Switchfoot’ new music video for its newest single, “Awakening,” from Oh! Gravity. at www.switchfoot.com/awakening (or by clicking the YouTube image)! The video also features Tony Hale (Arrested Development, Because I Said So, Stranger Than Fiction), Adam Campbell (Epic Movie) and Jayma Mays (Heroes).
“The traditional concept of a music video can be a bit surreal, lip-synching to your own songs can feel especially comical at times!” says Switchfoot member Tim Foreman. “With this irony in mind we wanted to make a video that doesn't take itself too seriously, even if the song itself is dealing with weighty issues... to make a music video that tells a different story than the song is already telling us. The song exists in a space entirely on its own, and nothing will ever add or subtract from what the song already is- why not use the video as a vehicle to go somewhere new? Somewhere that the song hasn't already been on it's own?”
Switchfoot is featured at numerous festivals this year, including Ichthus Festival (June 16 in Wilmore, KY), Alive Festival (June 22 in Lawrence, OH), Creation Northeast (June 27 in Shirleysburg, PA), Cornerstone Festival (June 29 in Bushnell, IL), Sonshine Festival (July 14 in Willmar, MN), Creation Northwest (July 27 in George, WA), Spirit West Coast (August 8 in Monterey, CA), and more.
