Today, This Is Lorelei, the solo project of Water From Your Eyes' Nate Amos announced the "Super Deluxe" version of his 2024 breakthrough record Box for Buddy, Box for Star, out April 17th via Double Double Whammy.

It includes the previously released covers of "Dancing In The Club" and "Two Legs" from MJ Lenderman and Snail Mail respectively, and now the rest of the record will be given the same cover treatment by Amos's friends, peers, and family.

With this announcement comes a cover of "Perfect Hand" from Power Snatch, the recently formed duo of Paramore's Hayley Williams and Daniel James, who produced Williams' 2025 solo outing Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party.

Listen below:

"We’ve both been fans of Nate's for a long time, and loved getting to rework one of our favorite This is Lorelei songs. His natural way with lyrics and melodies made it easy to translate the song to a different place for this project. It also happened to be the song that started Power Snatch,” Daniel James said of the collaboration.

Amos adds “getting to hear Hayley and Dan's beautiful take on ‘Perfect Hand’ for the first time was surreal, getting to contribute vocals was even more so. Couldn't be more stoked for this to exist.”

The Super Deluxe record includes covers from the likes of Waxahatchee, Jeff Tweedy, and Momma. See the full tracklist below.
