Rising alternative artist Elijah Cruise has returned with his stunning single ‘Dark Romance’, out today via the Lost Dreamers imprint.
Revered for his evocative vocals and emotionally charged delivery, Elijah shares a track that explores the beauty and fragility of loving someone through their darkest moments. Often drawing comparison to the likes of Arctic Monkeys and The Neighborhood, this single is another masterpiece in his ever-expanding discography.
As a self-taught singer-songwriter who grew up in Tennessee, Elijah is known for his unfiltered authenticity and groundbreaking creative prowess. His breakout hit ‘Poem of a Killer’ which saw him collaborate with Canadian duo WE ARE FURY, has garnered over 2 million streams as well as radio play on BBC Radio 1. Additionally, his 2024 viral hit ‘Chérie’ further cemented his growing influence, and debuted in the Top 10 on the iTunes Alternative Rock charts.
With ‘Dark Romance’ he invites listeners deeper into his immersive, enchanting universe which often reflects on love, pain and the human experience.
Speaking on the single Elijah divulged; “At its core, it’s about doing anything for the person you love. To embrace every side of them, even the darkest and most hidden parts. Musically, it draws from the striking nostalgia of the 2010s while carving a sound that hits deeply in the soul, offering something both familiar and uniquely mine.”
