Avril Lavigne Will Release a Charity Single

Avril Lavigne has re-recorded her Head Above Water track “Warrior” and will be releasing a charity single, “We Are Warriors,” on Friday to honor and assist those working the front line during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Ever since our world was turned upside down a few weeks ago I’ve seen everyday people put on their armor and go into battle,” she captioned a post. “Simple tasks like delivering mail has become a heroic effort.”

Saying such changes happened “overnight,” Avril said she was inspired by those who rose up to answer the call.

The song’s official artwork displays a regal and armor-clad Lavigne staring down an invisible enemy. The singer dedicates the new single to all the “warriors” working the front line and will donate net proceeds to Project HOPE.
