Uber aims to blend in fan love for the sport as well as affection for their favourite team to foster a spirit of solidarity at the event.
The rhythmic anthem is a cultural blend of harmonies, written by Sonal Dabral (Ogilvy) and composed, produced and curated by Michael (Mikey) McCleary. Promoting a truly global spirit of togetherness, acclaimed artists across five participating countries have put together Way-O, Way-O. The makers include Sanam, a popular Indian band known for its renditions of classical Bollywood songs, alongside other globally acclaimed artists such as Jahmiel (Jamaica), Catherine Taylor Dawson (United Kingdom), Simba Diallo (New Zealand) and Choir group - Khayelitsha United Mambazo (South Africa). It aims to strike a chord with the emotions that fans feel during the World Cup. We at Uber, are confident that the anthem will emerge as a strong symbol of cultural togetherness!
