Hello Mary - "Three"

Photo by Jessica Gurewitz

We cover a lot of bands that play a 90's style version of alt-/indie rock mixed with some pop here, but none of those bands nail it quite like Hello Mary. The New York City band have a new single out, and it's just awash in 90's influence. "Three" sounds kind of like a noisier version of The Cranberries. It's filled with harmonies and is simply a lush, gorgeous song. Of course, this is Hello Mary, so they end up tossing some more experimental indie rock noise and dissonance in towards the end. Combining indie rock with pop and getting surprisingly experimental is kind of Hello Mary's jam at this point, and "Three" shows this off perfectly.

You can watch the video for "Three" below. Emita Ox is due out September 13 on French Kiss Records, and is available for pre-order here. For more on Hello Mary, check out the band's website. Upcoming tour dates are below the video.
