Alternative duo Nine Perfect Lives has officially signed with record label AD 93. To mark the occasion, the group has released their debut single, Die.
Why it matters
The track Die was born from the creative collaboration between members Helena Straight and Stella Wave during a period of separation. It serves as a musical response to the heartbreak and confusion caused by Straight's relocation from Los Angeles.
The group consists of a two-member core, with a touring lineup that includes bassist Jeanne Hill and drummer Shanne Garcia.
