Christian music and country roots have found a compelling new voice in Breanna Nix. The 23-year-old singer-songwriter, who rose to national prominence as a finalist on Season 23 of American Idol, has claimed the No. 1 spot on Apple’s Country Songs Chart with her powerful single, “Higher.”

A moving blend of hope-filled lyrics and soaring vocals, “Higher” is a cover of Toby Lightman’s original, reimagined by Nix with unmistakable spiritual fervor. Since her third-place finish on Idol, Nix has garnered a devoted following for her unapologetic faith and genuine artistry.

Her latest success on the iTunes chart underscores not only her growing influence in the country genre, but also the appetite for music that uplifts and inspires.

Nix took to Instagram to celebrate the milestone, thanking her supporters and calling the achievement “just the beginning.” Her followers responded with enthusiasm, echoing her excitement and expressing pride in her journey. 

While the song currently holds the top position on Apple’s Country chart, it also ranks No. 9 on the overall Apple Songs chart—an impressive feat in a competitive musical landscape.

What sets Breanna apart is her unwavering devotion to her Christian beliefs. Throughout her run on American Idol, she made it clear that her musical journey is rooted in her faith. 

Performances of Christian hits like Katy Nichole’s “In Jesus Name” and Danny Gokey’s “Tell Your Heart to Beat Again” resonated deeply with viewers and showcased her emotional connection to the music.

Despite finishing third behind winner Jamal Roberts and runner-up John Foster, Nix’s influence was undeniable. She consistently brought spiritual conviction to the stage and earned admiration from fans and mentors alike. 

In a behind-the-scenes mentoring session with Fantasia, Nix opened up about the challenges of public scrutiny, including comments questioning her Christian identity. Fantasia offered heartfelt advice, reminding Nix to remain grounded and focused on her calling.

Nix’s impact has extended beyond the competition. Her heartfelt rendition of “In Jesus Name” during the finale, and her collaboration with fellow Christian contestants like Canaan James Hill, further solidified her as a voice for believers in mainstream entertainment.

The faith-centered themes in “Higher” speak to resilience, grace, and a higher calling—values that have long resonated in both Christian and country music circles. As Nix carves her path in the industry, her success suggests a revival of spiritually driven storytelling in modern music.

With momentum behind her and a message that reaches beyond the stage, Breanna Nix is poised to become one of this generation’s standout voices in country music. And for those who believe in the power of a song to lift the soul, “Higher” is a stirring reminder that faith and music still make a powerful pair.
