“Take Me Higher” is the second single from LISA COPPOLA’s forthcoming album, Showing Up As Myself, which will be released later this year. The track is a cinematic love-story anthem about freedom, trust, and rising together that crosses the boundaries of Americana and Adult Rock. “Take Me Higher” was co-written by an impressive trio including Coppola, along with Isaac Karen and Thorald Koren of Brothers Koren (formerly The Kin). Coppola describes the creative writing process: “the song grew out of a deeply human songwriter’s journey centered on trust, transformation, and emotional truth.” “Take Me Higher” was produced by multi-Grammy®-winning producer Lonnie Park (Sandi Patty, Merle Haggard, Baaba Maal). “Take Me Higher” was inspired by seeing someone I love step into a beautiful new chapter,” says Coppola. “My cousin’s engagement reminded me how powerful love can be when it feels safe, joyful, and expansive.
The song became a celebration of that feeling — being lifted, trusting again, and believing the future can be bright.” Lisa Coppola’s recent work has achieved international recognition, including chart successes: #10 on the iTunes UK Overall Chart, #1 on the UK Easy Listening Chart, #1 on the iTunes World Music, and her single “Simon’s Kiss” reached the Top 40 on the U.S. iTunes Rock Chart. A two-time Josie Music Award winner and longtime Recording Academy voting member, Coppola continues to build momentum with her signature blend of powerful vocals, emotional storytelling, and message-driven artistry.
