Carley Varley’s “Butterflies” pulls no punches when it comes to heartbreak. This is the second single from their ‘Anatomy of Loss’ EP, and it tackles that awful realization when you figure out your entire relationship was built on lies, and the lead guitar work does most of the heavy lifting here. It’s sharp and purposeful, matching the rawness in Varley’s voice perfectly.
The whole idea of being someone’s experiment, not knowing if you’ll recover, is brutal in the best way. It’s personal without being vague, and if you’ve ever had someone pull the rug out from under you. You’ll recognize that feeling immediately. Carley Varley has been gigging around Dorset and Hampshire for nearly ten years, and you can tell she knows how to work a room. This track shows she’s just as strong behind the pen as she is on stage.
