Butcher Babies Part Ways With Singer Carla Harvey

Last fall, Butcher Babies toured Europe without singer Carla Harvey who had to have emergency surgery on her left eye. Harvey, who is engaged to Anthrax/Pantera drummer Charlie Benante, spent 15 years with the group, but her time in the band has apparently come to an end.

The band announced earlier this week: “As you may have already guessed, it is confirmed that Carla Harvey and Butcher have officially parted ways. Carla has been an integral part of our journey, bringing her unique talent, passion, and energy to the band. We are grateful for the incredible memories we’ve made together and the impact she has had on our music and our fans. We will miss her greatly and we wish her all the best in her future endeavors.”

“We deeply appreciate your support over the past 15 years,” the band continued. “We feel incredibly fortunate to keep making and playing music as our career, and we are excited for this new era of Butcher Babies See you on the road.”

Harvey made her own post confirming her exit saying: “Over the last 6 months You may have noticed my absence from Butcher Babies posts. After 15 years of dedication, I wanted to let you know that I will not be rejoining the band for any future endeavors.”

“I am super proud of my work with Butcher Babies…2 EPS, 5 Full lengths albums and countless tours with our metal heroes! To all of our incredible Butcher Babies friends and fans…you have provided me with some of the greatest experiences of my life! I have loved every second of writing and performing all over the world for you! I have loved meeting you. WOW. I still can’t believe this kid from Detroit got so lucky.I am not done making music and performing. I WILL see you soon”.
