Next week SWITCHFOOT heads to Australia and New Zealand, where they will headline the traveling Soundwave Festival. They'll also be capturing footage for Fading West, the San Diego-based band's upcoming surf film, which will feature numerous other incredible surfing locations SWITCHFOOT has visited on its world tour.

On March 20, NBC SounDiego + Living Social present "An Evening with Switchfoot at La Jolla Playhouse." SWITCHFOOT and producer Neal Avron (Sara Bareilles, Weezer) will discuss the making of their latest album, Vice Verses (Atlantic Records). The evening will also feature a Q&A and meet-and-greet session. Tickets will be available on February 22 exclusively through www.livingsocial.com.

On Record Store Day, April 21, SWITCHFOOT will release a limited edition CD entitled Vice Re-Verses. The EP will feature remixes of songs from Vice Verses by Paper Route, Owl City's Adam Young, Photek and Darren King. A digital version of Vice Re-Verses will be released on May 1 and will include a remix of the band'snew single, "Afterlife," by the winner of the Switchfoot Remix Contest, which is underway now at http://www.talenthouse.com/remix-for-switchfoot and sponsored by Ultimate Ears.

"Afterlife" is the follow-up to SWITCHFOOT's Top 5 Modern Rock hit "Dark Horses," which was the first single from Vice Verses. Billboard praised the record's "powerful, anthemic rockers" and Relevant Magazine called it SWITCHFOOT'S "most unique" album yet. "[The] gorgeous, swelling 'Restless' sounds plucked from U2's Achtung Baby," said Alternative Press.
