Lifted is the second studio album by Australian songwriter and record producer Hayden James.

The album will be supported by the Australian and New Zealand Lifted Tour, commencing in Brisbane in August 2022.

[4] James began working on Lifted in "late 2020" after the COVID-19 pandemic stopped him from touring.

He told Triple J "The result is a huge emotional, energetic dance record, with elements of piano-house, melodic house and a positive tone and feel that can be found across all tracks.

When I write an album, everything has a place and a purpose, and it's all part of the bigger story.
