Jon Foreman Net Worth $3 Million
Jon Foreman is the son of Jan and Mark Foreman, both of them serving as senior pastors at North Coast Calvary Chapel. He divided his early childhood between Massachusetts and Virginia Beach, because his family moved from his hometown immediately after his birth. He attended Torrey Pines High School in Carmel Valley, but matriculated from San Dieguito Academy, as the family had settled in San Diego, California. Upon matriculation, Jon enrolled in UC San Diego, but soon quit education in order to pursue his career as a musician.
Thus, Jon’s professional musical career began in 1996, when he co-founded the band called Chin Up, along with his brother, Tim Foreman, who plays the bass guitar, and drummer Chad Butler. They soon signed their first contract with a record label, but before recording their first album, they changed the name of the band to Switchfoot. Their debut album “The Legend Of Chin” came out in the following year, and they then released the second album entitled “New Way To Be Human” (1999), which achieved major success, marking the beginning of an increase of his net worth.
Jon’s major project came in 2003, when they released via Columbia/RED the album “The Beautiful Letdown”, which achieved enormous success, as it topped on Billboard’s Christian Albums chart and achieved double platinum certification by the RIAA, which added a considerable amount to his net worth. Two years later the album “Nothing Is Sound” came out, which was certified gold by the RIAA, and by the end of the decade, they had also released two more successful studio albums – “Oh! Gravity.” (2006), and “Hello Hurricane” (2009).
During the next decade, Jon released three more albums with the band – “Vice Verses” (2011), “Fading West” (2014), and “Where The Light Shines Through” (2016) – all of which topped Billboard’s Christian Albums chart, and contributed significantly to his net worth.
To speak further about his career, Jon is also known for being a part of the duo Fiction Family, along with Sean Watkins. The duo was formed in 2006, and they released their self-titled album in 2009, which entered the top three on Billboard’s Christian Albums chart, and then the album “Fiction Family Reunion” in 2013. Both of these projects increased Jon’s net worth by a large margin.
Additionally, Jon pursued his musical career as a solo artist, releasing four EPs entitled as four seasons – “Spring”, “Summer”, “Fall” and “Winter” – which also increased further his wealth. In 2008 out came “Limbs And Branches”, and most recently, he released the EP “The Wonderlands” (2015). His net worth is certainly still rising.
Regarding to his personal life, Jon Foreman has been married to Emily Foreman since 2002; the couple has a daughter. Their current residence is in Cardiff-by-the-Sea, San Diego, California.
