After their new success with the Appetite for Construction Tour, the band Switchfoot has yet again gone on board on another tour, Up in Arms Tour. The band has decided to go back to their preferred venue demographic following their mainly arena / small stadium tours for Appetite, the venues being college campuses, small amphitheatres, and small rock clubs. The trip will be a one month long concert tour and will see the band teaming up with philantrophic organization To Write Love on Her Arms. The UK pop rock outfit, Athlete, will be the opening act for every show. Throughout the tour, other rock bands such as Sparky’s Flow, The Myriad, etc. are usual to open for Switchfoot.
Switchfoot has been actively concerned in a number of humanitarian causes, as well as DATA, the ONE Campaign, the Keep A Breast Foundation, Habitat for Humanity, Invisible Children, and To Write Love on Her Arms. On top to supporting those causes Switchfoot has fronted the Switchfoot Bro-Am Surf Contest and the online magazine lowercase people.
