When you think of the Olympics, certain words immediately come to mind: strength, determination, heart. Evaride’s single, “Warrior," one of the official partner songs to the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, emits those feelings of readiness and resilience. They released "Warrior" in 2019 and now the offering is seeing the light once again. Just like the song's message of persistence, it shows you should never give up. The passionate track starts off soft then builds into an intense punch of percussion. Powerfully singing, “when they hold us down/ we’ll be screaming out/ warrior / we were born the fighters/ there’s a beast inside us,” it is a fierce warrior cry to get anyone’s head in the game. Their lyric video portrays that same message of fortitude with flags, pillars and statues of gods.
Evaride is made up of Sean Michael Murray on vocals and Hayden Maringer on guitar. Within their bold music, you can hear their immense talent and drive, gaining them a fervent fan base. The duo showcases that same energetic ambition in this revved-up release. It is only fitting their song was aired during the 2021 Tokyo Olympics as it is truly masterful and motivating. “Rise up from the ashes now/ like a warrior. We are warriors.” It is lyrics like these, which provide just the right enthusiasm our Olympians need.
