## Summary

Nine Perfect Lives, a new side project by Hello Mary members Stella Wave and Helena Straight, have released their debut single, “Die”, on AD 93. The song grew out of the strain of distance between the pair when Straight moved from Brooklyn to Los Angeles, and marks a renewed creative bond alongside their work in Hello Mary.

Straight says she wrote and recorded an initial demo in a few hours as a response to Wave’s heartbreak and confusion about her move. The pair later developed it together, making it the first Nine Perfect Lives song and their chosen debut single. A video directed by Milo Hume accompanies the release, and the duo are scheduled to open for Friko and Lime Garden on dates in Durham, Atlanta, Nashville, Columbus and Brooklyn.
