Hello Everyone -

During my years in Switchfoot I have been fortunate enough to stumble across all sorts of songs as a songwriter- some are perfect for a rock band to play and others are far too intimate. Some need to be played in arenas with electric guitars, some deserve to be played with simply a cello and a bass clarinet.

Tim, Chad, and the boys, (and many of you) have been encouraging me to get the softer songs out for years. Now that we are independent, that dream of ours is finally coming true.

Over the course of the year I will be releasing 4 ep's, with 6 songs on each ep. The ep's will be seasonal: fall, winter, spring & summer.

The Fall ep features the following 6 songs:

1. The Cure For Pain
2. Equally Skilled
3. Lord, Save Me From Myself
4. The Moon Is A Magnet
5. My Love Goes Free
6. Southbound Train

I am so privileged to have such an amazing group of supportive people around me. I would never had undertaken this project if it were not for your help and encouragement. Thank you so much!

I can't wait to share these tunes with you.

jon

Jon, your lyrics are so great... You somehow find a way to connect with anyone and everyone through your music. Can't wait to hopefully see a solo show or aftershow :) Nov 01

Hey, Jon! I love the stuff you make, man. I have been a fan of your writing for about 8 years now. Being a lyricist, it blows my mind the stuff you've come up with recently, especially songs like Somebody's Baby, the most heartbreakingly beautiful song I've ever heard. My favorite song of yours from Switchfoot would have to be Twenty Four. Soooo pretty... Anyway, I appreciate all your dedication to music and keeping not only refreshing and thoughtful, but Godly and pure. You're my hero, man. :) -Nick Riley (purevolume.com/theimpulseinadequate) Jan 17

Jon, I believe that your stuff is brilliant. I have always loved Switchfoot's softer songs, such as "Let Your Love Be Strong" and "Let That Be Enough" and this is just a joy for me to listen to. These are raw confessions and they are really true for many people, including myself. God's truth can really be found in some of these songs, like "Baptize My Mind" and "A Mirror Is So Much Harder to Hold" (which is more figurative that outright God's Word). I know you're probably going to stay with Switchfoot for quite a long time, but keep writing down these confessions, and if it suits you, write songs along with them. May God bless you in your ministries. Jul 10

For one, i love your music. you are extremely talented and your music has helped me through a lot. I'm sure youve probably heard people being stupid and making stupid controversy about "Somebody's Baby" (by the way, i LOOOOVVEE that song) and freaking out about where it says "sure as hell you'd be a drunk". I wanted to say that only the ignorant take that the wrong way and they dont deserve to listen to your music, lol (that was dramatic) I just wanted to comment that stupid people are being stupid and you'll always have the love and support of me, my sister, my parents, and my church. I LOVE your music! Jun 06
