ANNOUNCE DEBUT UK HEADLINE SHOW AT THE WINDMILL AND SHARE AMERICAN FOOTBALL SUPPORT DATES

Praise for Hello Mary

"sharp and self-assured” - Rolling Stone

"This Brooklyn-based trio’s debut full-length is a promising set of ‘90s-steeped grunge-pop with distorted guitars, bright harmonies and lyrics of anxiety and acceptance." - Brooklyn Vegan

"They're one of the coolest acts to come out of NYC in recent years…(Hello Mary) will help to reaffirm that not only are the kids all right, but the state of rock is all right, too."Alternative Press

"Hello Mary has proven to be an almost unshakable band" Paste

"The string of singles from their upcoming LP skew more reverb-drenched and psychedelic, with ‘Looking Right into the Sun’ and ‘Spiral' serving as intriguing indicators of a more kaleidoscopic Hello Mary." - Nylon “14 New Musicians & Bands To Know In 2023” 

"a new eerie psychedelic single" MTV on “Spiral”

"Alternating between the hauntingly inviting shoegaze melodies and explosive interludes of their self-titled album, the trio turned into hard-rock snake charmers during their sharp 35-minute set." Austin Chronicle

"By day, quiet college students; by night, legitimate rock stars ready to take on the world." The Big Takeover

"Still in their late teens and early 20s, the Brooklyn-raised women of Hello Mary evoke the sound and attitude of classic ’90s-era alternative and indie rock…their upcoming self-titled debut is the stuff breakout LPs are made of." - TIDAL “Rising Artists of 2023”

 

Hello Mary - the New York-based indie rock band of Helena Straight, Stella Wave and Mikaela Oppenheimer - make their triumphant return today with “0%.” Roaring with spun-out guitars, heavyweight bass, and thundering punk drums, the track arrives as the band’s most daring statement yet, as they push their ‘90s-inspired sound into new heavy and distorted depths. It’s a full-throated evolution from the unravelling, grungy stylings they unveiled on last year’s sophomore self-titled LP, which brought praise from Rolling Stone (“one of 2023’s sharpest, noisiest debuts”) and brought them to open for the likes of American Football and Silversun Pickups.

“0% is one of our favourites to play live,” Hello Mary says. “Our inspirations in the last year have broadened, and we feel like this song reflects that.”

True to form, “0%” emerged naturally as the trio were jamming in their practice space. After becoming a crowd favourite live, it really came to life in the studio, It was the first time drummer/vocalist Wave had ever screamed on a song. Yet when she hopped in the recording booth, she was emboldened to draw out the shout vocals the band had originally planned, turning them into longer screams. As she yells in frustration, "I don't know!" the song pushes towards a cathartic storm of blissed-out noise, before suddenly dropping into a raucous breakdown of vibraphone and triangle that gives it Hello Mary’s signature playfulness.

Well-known for putting on killer live shows, Hello Mary have been invited by Silversun Pickups to join them on tour as their direct support multiple times this past year. The two bands are currently on the road in the United States on a run that hits Brooklyn, NY on June 27 for a show at Brooklyn Steel and concludes on June 29.

Following that, Hello Mary will play their own headline dates this summer, support Julie on select shows, make an appearance at Denver’s Underground Music Festival, and head to the UK for a series of festival dates, their first headliner at Brixton Windmill, announced today, and dates in support of American Football.
