Newly signed to the brilliant AD 93, 'Die' is the emotive debut single from Nine Perfect Lives. Having collaborated for years as members of alt-rock outfit Hello Mary, Helena Straight and Stella Wave are cementing their creative connection with this new project. In spite of its alarming title, 'Die' is gentle, considered and cathartic. Explained best in the bands own words, Straight explains: “I started writing ‘Die’ when I was living in LA and Stella was still in Brooklyn," Straight says of the track. "We made deliberate efforts to stay in touch and work on music but I wasn’t yet sure when or if I was moving back to New York. I wrote and recorded a demo of the song in a few hours and realized that it was a direct response to Stella’s heartbreak and confusion about my impulsive move across the country. Fleshing out the demo together felt effortless and reinforced our creative bond which was compromised in the context of Hello Mary at that time. ‘Die’ became the first NPL song so we are pleased for it to be our first single.”
