Emily Graham is an emerging singer/songwriter from Columbus who has characterized herself with a unique and euphoric pop/rock sound. Her music is a blend of apocalyptic alternative rock and pop-punk with mellow undertones. Emily found her love of music through drums, which she picked up when she was only five years old. Once she turned seven, she picked up the guitar and began songwriting shortly after. Emily attributes her sound to the eras of music that have influenced her: 1970's soft rock, 1990's grunge/alt rock, 2000's pop/punk, 2010's dark pop, and more.
Emily's Debut EP “The Nights Where you Were Mine" is out now! This EP is a sonic journey that perfectly encapsulates the highs and lows of young love. The first song, “Roses” is a moody, alternative work that captures the denial stage of grief. This song ventures through the speakers emotions of heartbreak, inner turmoil and loss that the speaker cannot fathom. The second track “Unfazed” is pop-rock anthem, which finds a more matured version of the “Roses” narrator. Unfazed takes us through her journey of acceptance and her desire to remain “cool on the surface”…at least until she leaves the eyes of her past love. “Adeline”, captures an emotional journey of heartbreak, loss, transparency, forgiveness, and acceptance. This one is much softer than Emily's previous two singles, channeling a vulnerability only a guitar ballad can offer. The last song off the EP “Waste Your Love” is a celebratory, Noah Kahan inspired piece that depicts exactly how it feels when you find your person. it is a perfect conclusion to the storyline.
Since Her EP, Emily has released various singles. The fan favorite “Teeth” is an edgy, alternative anthem, concluding that people do infact have “teeth” besides the literal implication. “Out There, Somewhere” is a heartbreaking piano ballad that wrestles with the reality that those who exit our lives will always be out there, somewhere. Sometimes, that “somewhere” is out of our reach.
Now, Emily is about to drop her 7th single “Love's Not for Me”. Catch her again on 9/29 when it's yours!
