Singer-Songwriter Couple Breaks up -Then Puts Out an Album About It | By Samantha Whidden, Suggest | A former singer-songwriter couple deals with the end of their 13-year relationship by releasing an album about the split. While speaking to the CBC, Canadian musician Scarlett Flynn discussed how she and her ex, Kevin Howley, released an album inspired by their break-up.
“For 13 years, we had built everything together: a band, a home, a mythology of love so inseparable from the music that we couldn’t tell which one we were trying to save,” Flynn explained. “When it ended, there was no explosion, only the quiet collapse. It’s strange, the way something can die so quietly you keep tending to it, thinking it’s still alive. The band had always been our shared language – now, it was a monument to what music can’t save. It was a particular kind of grieft.”
Following the break-up, the exes and their band faced another challenge – the pandemic. With the pandemic shutting everything down, Flynn said she had nothing else to do but write music.
“The writing became a study in the aftermath, tracing what had failed and why,” she continued.
“The infidelities, the depression, the drinking, the way love curdled into caretaking and caretaking into resentment – and what, if anything, still carried meaning. That’s when I realized there was something there. I was writing from the wound, not around it – not a love-and-leave elegy, but a reckoning. One that chose barbed honesty over blame and found grace where bitterness should have been.”
