Now, Carter follows up the single release with a visually arresting lyric video to accompany the song, created by visual artists Sanna Legan and Justin Hoggard.
For decades, Lynda Carter has stood as a steadfast advocate for change, weaving her passion for empowerment into various facets of her career, from her groundbreaking role as Wonder Woman to her moving music. “Rise Up” serves as a rallying cry for unity and resilience. Through captivating imagery that mirrors the song’s message, the video invites viewers on a journey of self-empowerment and solidarity.
“‘Rise Up’ is about empowering every American to do something great, whether it’s for their community, their country, or the world. Every day, you see stories of hatred and violence in the news,” Carter said. “This song is a celebration of the activism and civic engagement that makes progress possible. Superman and Wonder Woman aren’t going to come and save you, but that’s okay, because you can be the real hero of your own story.”
“Rise Up” is now available on all major streaming platforms.
