SAN FRANCISCO — San Diego alt-rock band Switchfoot, which released its 11th album, Native Tongue, last fall, brought its tour to The Warfield Sunday night.

Switchfoot is marking its 20th year together, as well as keyboardist Jerome Fontamillas’ recovery from cancer. He, singer-guitarist Jon Foreman, bassist Tim Foreman, drummer Chad Butler and guitarist Drew Shirley played a set that included several cuts from the new record; including the title track, “Prodigal Soul” and “All I Need.”

The band also performed a handful of songs from 2016’s Where the Light Shines Through, as well as a few from 2003 album The Beautiful Letdown, which broke Switchfoot into the mainstream.

Tennessee rockers Colony House (led by Caleb and Will Chapman, the sons of Steven Curtis Chapman) and San Diego singer-songwriter Tyson Motsenbocker opened the show. Fun fact: Motsenbocker spent a month walking from San Diego to the Golden Gate Bridge, a trip during which he composed some songs. His short set included the upbeat “Take All Night for Nothing.”
