LEXINGTON, Ky. – Nearly a month ago, “Brave, Bold & Free” by RAGS AND RICHES came out as Lexington Sporting Club’s anthem, and today the official lyric video is released to accompany the emblematic song.
Lexington natives Tanner and Peyton Whitt are the brother duo behind RAGS AND RICHES, and have grown exponentially since their debut single, “Speed of Sound,” dropped in 2019. They have performed more than 200 shows in 40 states, and have amassed over 4 million streams and 1.5 million video views in just four years.
“Brave, Bold & Free” can be heard at the end of each Lexington SC home match, with the first official playing following the Club’s April 8 contest against Forward Madison FC.
“When we met Sam Stockley in January of 2022 we loved his passion for this city and the team,” said Tanner and Peyton Whitt. “So, when the concept of an “Official Team Anthem” was introduced, we knew exactly what to do! Brave, Bold & Free is a song we wrote about coming together as one and never giving up the fight. Seeing the song played at the historic first home game and all the home games was and still is so amazing. Needless to say, we’re super excited for the future of Lexington Sporting Club!”
Stockley, Lexington’s Men’s Sporting Director and USL League One head coach, said, “I’ve now known Tanner and Peyton for over a year, and they’ve been fantastic ambassadors for Lexington and what this city is all about. To have them write a song for us is special enough, but for it to be as impactful as Brave, Bold & Free turned out to be is more than we could have hoped for.”
Fans can find the song here and can add it on Spotify, Apple Music and other platforms.
The next home match for Lexington is Saturday, May 13, at 7 p.m. against Charlotte Independence at Toyota Stadium.
