FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Moments after the New England Revolution’s 2-2 draw with D.C. United on April 22, an unfamiliar song rang through the sound system at Gillette Stadium.
Relentlessly upbeat and breathlessly energetic, it’s a tune that was hard to miss.
ONE New England!
ONE New England!
Revolution we all scream!
ONE New England!
ONE New England!
Revolution is our team!
What fans were hearing for the first time was “ONE New England,” a song written and performed by David McWane, best known as the lead singer of Boston-based band Big D and the Kids Table, who’ve been a staple on the ska punk scene since forming at the Berklee College of Music in 1996.
