Local product writes Revs 2012 official victory song





FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – “New England Revolution Anthem,” written and performed by Abington, Mass. resident Josephin Shlomit Madden, has been selected as the New England Revolution’s official 2012 victory song.


Madden – a 10-year season ticket holder – will perform the song on the Gillette Stadium field ahead of the Revolution’s home opener against the Portland Timbers on Saturday, March 24. She will then take the field at halftime to sing several additional songs.


“My heart is exploding that my ‘New England Revolution Anthem’ is the new official victory song of the New England Revolution,” said Madden. “I know this anthem can – and will – bring everyone together and give the Revs players a boost. I hope the fans get to hear this song played after a lot of Revolution victories at Gillette Stadium this season!”

“Having one of our long-standing season ticket holders as passionate and talented as Josephin pen a song about our club means a lot and we’re thrilled to announce ‘New England Revolution Anthem’ as our 2012 anthem, “ said Revolution President Brian Bilello. “We’re looking forward to hearing it many times this year after wins at Gillette Stadium.”
