Switchfoot

The ONE Music Builds Tour featuring Third Day, Switchfoot, Robert Randolph and the Family Band, and Jars of Clay will stop Oct. 5 at Oklahoma City’s Ford Center.

The ONE Campaign is an organization urging government leaders to fight extreme poverty and preventable disease around the world. The tour is a benefit for Hollywood’s Habitat for Humanity, according to a news release.

The 23-city U.S. tour will kick off Aug. 21 in Detroit and wrap up Oct. 12 in Denver. Along with the performances, the shows will feature video presentations from the ONE Campaign and two booths for concert-goers to learn more about how they can be involved in the fight against poverty and disease around the world.

“We’ve supported the ONE Campaign for a while because it’s an important way for the rest of us unelected folks to get involved in changing our world,” said Switchfoot drummer Chad Butler in a news release.
