Irish indie-folk artist The Butterfly Graveyard – releases cinematic and thoughtful new single ‘Steal Every Drop From The Day’

Delicate and delicious, Irish alt-rock artist The Butterfly Graveyard is located somewhere between The Blue Nile, Jeff Buckley and the deep blue sea. He makes a fragile music, soft as a butterfly’s wing but sometimes rough and uneven like the underbelly of a leaf, translucent when held up under the light. Having released a series of well received singles over the last couple of years the Cork based artist returns with the gorgeous and cinematic new track ‘Steal Every Drop From The Day‘ 

”The idea behind this track is a simple one, basically that life is short so make the most of it.”

“We are all given a certain amount of heartbeats when we are born, so this track is a little reminder to try and make the most of the time we are given. Mindfulness is everywhere these days but it’s difficult in a busy world. It’s like driving somewhere on autopilot and when you reach your destination,  you have no memory of the journey. It’s easy to sleepwalk through your day and miss out on the small important moments,  being present and awake is hard to do but if it was easy they’d all be doing it.”
