Firerose's “Shining Armor (Rise Again)” illuminates strength and survival

Firerose, a singer-songwriter from Sydney, begins a bright new chapter with her latest single, "Shining Armour (Rise Again)." The song is both a personal statement and a spiritual anthem. This song, co-written with fellow survivor Erin Molan, reworks the title track from her most recent album into its final form. It is a bold statement about taking back one's power and voice.

Firerose directed the music video, shot in New York City. It shows the song's duality of closeness and openness. It's a visual journey that makes a point that is very true, the help we need most often starts from within. Firerose's message is clear, strength is not given, it is chosen. The video's images and tone support this awakening by depicting a journey from weakness to strength, where individuals become their own knights in shining armour.

Firerose's art is still very much based on her faith, which has helped her through the hardest times in her life. She gets her long-lasting hope from the rainbow lorikeets she saw as a child in Sydney. She puts that hope into music that heals and gives people strength. Music and writing songs were her lifeline as a child. They were the only places where she could fully be herself and turn her pain into something useful.

"Shining Armour (Rise Again)" is a declaration of independence, a musical testament to survival, spiritual renewal, and the courage to fight for yourself no matter what. Firerose's voice is calm but raw, and it tells a story that is both deeply personal and universally relatable. It invites listeners to find their light in the dark.
