Friends on a Powder Day

Friends on a Powder Day by Everwild Collective 

Backstory: At its core, this song is about connection. Powder is fleeting – but the people you share it with are what stick with you. Laughing, hooting, regrouping at the bottom, realizing the best part of the day was never just the snow.

Lyrics:

Carpool deep in the canyon line
Sky goin’ white, caffeine high
Skis all packed, snowfall’s severe
Someone yells: “Epic day up here”
Same crew text, same ETA
Ever hear of friends on a powder day? (Huh?)

Pull in early, lot’s still quiet
Boots on ice and snow gettin’ violent
High fives fly, skier jokes
Someone says, “Bro… this storm ain’t no joke”

They used to say, “Don’t wait, don’t delay,
There’s no friends on a powder day”
Yeah, I’ve heard that sad old phrase
But nah, that’s not how we ski around this place

I don’t need first chair if I lose my crew
Best laps hit harder when we all roll through

Friends on a powder day, yah let’s go!
Meet ya at the lift, we ain’t ditchin’ no one, bro
Yeah, friends on a powder day, all-time vibes
Same chair, same stoke, same whoopin’ lines
Free refills means there’s no scarcity
Plenty of snow for you and me
Say it loud, say it your way:
Friends on a powder day!

Friends on a powder day
Friends on a powder day
Friends on a powder day

First run down, face shots deep
Someone yard sales, can’t even speak
We’re laughin’ so hard we forget the plan
Skis pointed down, yellin’ “Send it, man!”

I’ll film you droppin’ that side-hit clean
Slow-mo spray, straight magazine
You hype my turn like X-Games gold
That’s good karma, that’s how we roll

Clock don’t matter, storm still dumps
Lift keeps spinnin’, hearts goin’ thump-thump-thump

Friends on a powder day, say it again
Same storm cycle, same ride-or-die friends
Friends on a powder day, lock it in tight
No ghostin’ the crew for one extra line
Free refills mean pow all day
No rush, no stress, no FOMO, by the way
Best damn turns I’ve ever made
Friends on a powder day

Friends on a powder day
Friends on a powder day
Friends on a powder day

I’ll wait for ya, I won’t bail
Lift meet means lift meet, ain’t no tall tale
If you send it, I’m hollerin' loud
If you eat it, I’m diggin’ you out

Storm keeps givin’, mountain agrees
There’s more than enough for the whole damn team
What’s the flex in skiin’ alone
When shared laps make legends known?

Friends (Friends)
On a Powder (Powder)
Day (Day)
Ah, that’s right

Friends on a powder day — all caps, all in
Meet ya at the lift for the next lap, grinnin’
Friends on a powder day — ride ‘til last chair
Snow in our hoods, joy everywhere
Lifts keep spinnin’, flakes don’t stop
Plenty of runs from bottom to top
Free refills still stackin’ up all day
Better with the crew than a-racin’ away
Shout it loud, let the whole hill say
Friends on a powder day

Friends on a powder day
Friends on a powder day
Friends on a powder day

Friends on a powder day
Friends on a powder day
Friends on a powder day
