VARLEY Release ‘Phantom Studies’
Berlin based, alt pop trio VARLEY have just released their brand new single Phantom Studies, out now via Seahorse Music. This is such a smooth piece of pop music with a dreamy atmosphere that will get you hooked in no time.

Irish front-woman Claire-Ann Varley's dulcet and hypnotic vocals flow effortlessly through a twinkling soundscape of shimmering electronics, percussive beats and the ethereal sound of a pedal steel guitar. I am also enjoying the honest, reflective lyrics that grapple with the varying perceptions of reality, making Phantom Studies a mesmerising piece of dreamy alt-pop music perfect for a laid-back weekend at home. Stream it below!




Speaking about the song Claire-Ann said,
Was it real? Did it actually exist and if so, did it exist in the way it appeared to me? 'Phantom studies' looks at the dynamic between two people who, although have the same daily routine, see things in a completely different way. It shows how memories can be warped and changed over time and how one person’s reality is not the same as another’s. It shows the breakdown in a relationship and communication and how sometimes even when we communicate our feelings they are not taken seriously.

Formed on the way home after a night out bowling, VARLEY consist of vocalist Claire-Ann Varley, and multi-instrumentalists Matthias Heising and Joschka Bender.
