After early success as Christian artists, Switchfoot gained mainstream recognition when four of its songs were included in the 2002 film A Walk to Remember. The band’s first major label album, “The Beautiful Letdown,” featured hits “Meant to Live” and “Dare You to Move” and sold more than 2.6 million copies. Switchfoot’s seventh studio album, “Hello Hurricane,” received a Grammy award in 2011 for Best Rock Gospel Album.
