Sophia Anne Caruso has released her new single 'Higher State,' the first single from her debut full-length album, ON ECSTATIC, arriving September 18. Listen now!
An electronic love song, 'Higher State' marks the beginning of a new creative chapter for Caruso, pairing electronic production with intimate lyricism. Written by Caruso and featuring vocals from her partner and collaborator Sky Lakota-Lynch, the track reflects on love as a transformative and unifying force and the courage to move beyond the illusion of aloneness. It sets the tone for an album that explores hope, memory, interconnectedness, and what it means to choose one another in an increasingly fragmented world. ON ECSTATIC blends hyperpop's adventurous sonic palette with deeply personal, songwriter-driven storytelling.
ACaruso originated the role of Lydia Deetz in Broadway's Beetlejuice before starring in Netflix's The School for Good and Evil alongside Kerry Washington and Charlize Theron.
