Since their debut in 1997, Switchfoot's driving sound has been propelled by Chad's dynamic drumming. After three successful releases on the Sparrow label, the band's music exploded into the mainstream with the Warner Brothers film "A Walk To Remember".
2003 saw the release of their major label debut "The Beautiful Letdown" which spawned the Top 100 single "Meant To Live." Though he is constantly on tour, Chad still finds time to be a devoted husband, father, and surfer.
