The track, released on June 8th, was met with excitement, receiving praise from Billboard, Nylon, Teen Vogue, Wonderland, The Line Of Best Fit, and setting the tone for the incredible year The Aces have in store.
Like the inspiration behind the song, the ‘Girls Make Me Wanna Di’” video storyline follows a young girl in the throes of unrequited love with her best friend. The Aces sought out to embody everything that experience has to offer in this official video; from the moments of hope to the devastating heartbreak that comes with a forbidden love.
The Aces explained, “This song lyrically tells such a descriptive story, we thought it would be a shame not to show visually. We wanted to articulate through the video what ‘Girls Make Me Wanna Die’ is really all about—unrequited love, specifically unrequited queer love, which can be so much more layered than someone simply not reciprocating your feelings. Casting two of our friends, one being from our hometown, felt really special because we share that experience of not being able to love freely as teenagers living in a conservative town. Together we show in this video the complexities of growing up queer in a place and time where being open about those feelings wasn’t an option.”
In honour of Pride month, The Aces also partnered with Apple Maps to highlight their favourite LGBTQIA owned or friendly places in Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, and New York City. Fans can check out the bands’ Apple Maps Pride Guide HERE.
Having just finished their Pride Festival run, The Aces will join LA-based band Why Don’t We on their North American tour, kicking off July 27th in Tulsa, Oklahoma. To keep up with The Aces, new music, and purchase tickets to catch them on tour, visit https://theacesofficial.com
ABOUT THE ACES
The Aces are ready to greet you now, again. It’s been four years since the quartet released their acclaimed debut album, When My Heart Felt Volcanic, in those four years, the band has supported 5 Seconds of Summer, X Ambassadors, and sold out their own US headline tour. Universally relatable and yet deeply personal, in 2020 The Aces returned with the confidence only time and true friendship can bring. Their album Under My Influence isn’t just brimming with honesty, but with trust—trust in themselves, as individuals, as a group, and in their camaraderie with their fans. The Aces are the next “it” girls, but not like “it” girls of the past. They are changing what it means to be an influencer and embodying what the modern woman has become. The Aces have developed the ability to connect with the new generation of music listeners. Sisters Cristal and Alisa Ramirez (vocals/guitar and drums, respectively), McKenna Petty (bass), and Katie Henderson (lead guitar/vocals) – all friends since grade school in Provo, Utah – explore growing up and falling in love in the 21st century with candid honesty and endearing relatability. With their infectious new single “Girls Make Me Wanna Die”, tour supporting Why Don’t We, and stops a Pride Festivals across the country, The Aces are primed to make a big splash in Summer 2022.
