Winter is the second EP released by Jon Foreman,frontman of the San Diego rock band Switchfoot. The EP was released on Tuesday,January 15,2008, [9] as either a digital download or as a physical copy packaged with the Fall EP in a double-disc set.
Stylistically,this EP reflects a more experimental side to Foreman's songwriting. Whereas the Fall EP displayed a more straightforward approach musically,experimentation on Winter is much more evident. "White as Snow" toys with a slightly eastern influenced sound,while "In Love" carries a very oriental,and near-mantric feel—both new concepts in Foreman's music. [10] The feel of the album is indeed much more 'wintry',reflecting the dead of wintertime.[ original research? ]
The Fall &Winter CD combo debuted on the Billboard Top Heatseeker's chart at No. 24. [11]
