The track showcases the artist at her most vulnerable and intimate.
Thoughtful songwriting and engrossing melodies have become staples of Australian singer-songwriter Holly Riva‘s sound, with the artist’s multi-faceted and immersive approach leading to many singling the artist as one to watch, with a nomination for Best Song at the Hollywood Independent Music Awards along the way.
The latest release from the exciting artist is ‘Drowning’, a more vulnerable and personal release from the artist that explores the way that you can get lost in damaging and toxic relationships and overwhelming feelings that can come with them. This bold and intimate narrative is paired with a stripped-back narrative that feels almost ethereal thanks to the powerful layering of the vocals and the poise and composure of the artist and her alluring style. ‘Drowning’ is a track that serves as both a cathartic outlook for the artist’s struggles while acting as a beacon of solidarity for anybody going through a similar situation, with the sparse stylistic choices and thoughtful nuance creating an atmospheric feel that extracts every drop of emotion and rawness from her vocals and lyrics.
