Scaffolding For The Soul

Jon Foreman of Switchfoot

Cris Cohen: Your phrase “scaffolding for the soul” is one of the coolest descriptions I've heard for the power of songs and lyrics.

Jon Foreman of Switchfoot: It's something to hold on to in the in-between. What do they call that? The liminal space. Where the ocean meets the shore. That's where all the friction happens. And as a surfer, that's kind of where you want to be. That's where all the power is.
