Emerging artist Elliot Graves introduces himself with the striking debut single “drowning in the quiet,” a dark, emotionally charged track that captures the stillness that follows heartbreak — when silence is louder than words.
Hailing from a small town in the south, Elliot Graves blends atmospheric production with intimate, confessional songwriting. “drowning in the quiet” leans into themes of absence, memory, and unresolved emotion, painting a vivid picture of loss through minimalism and restraint rather than volume.
Driven by moody textures, subtle melodies, and a sense of emotional isolation, the track feels deeply personal while remaining universally relatable. Lyrics like “Your sweater in the corner still smells like you” anchor the song in quiet, everyday moments — the kind that linger long after someone is gone.
“drowning in the quiet” marks the first chapter in Elliot Graves’ unfolding story and serves as the lead single from his upcoming EP, a project that explores grief, nostalgia, and the emotional weight we carry in silence.
