Holychild (stylized as HOLYCHILD) is an American indie pop duo from Los Angeles, California, United States. The band consists of songwriter and vocalist Liz Nistico and producer and multi-instrumentalist Louie Diller, though they often play with more musicians for their live show. The band signed to Glassnote Records in 2013,[6] and define their genre as "brat pop". Holychild released an EP entitled Mindspeak in 2014 and their full-length debut album The Shape of Brat Pop to Come was released in June 2015.[2] America Oil Lamb, a followup EP of collaboration songs was released in June 2016. [7] After a two year hiatus, the band broke their silence with four singles in 2018 and have announced their sophomore album is due spring 2019[8][9].

History

Formation (2012)

HOLYCHILD formed in college at George Washington University in D.C., where Diller was the musical accompanist for Nistico’s modern dance class in 2011. The two were drawn to each other’s creativity and abilities. In 2011 they spent a summer together writing and making music until Nistico moved to Brooklyn and Diller stayed in DC. In 2012 Diller convinced Nistico to move back to Washington, DC to record their songs and start a band. They formed HOLYCHILD and moved to L.A. in September 2012. Their initial focus was on music, songs, production and visual accompaniments. The two started performing in early 2013. [10]

Mindspeak

The duo found early success in 2013 through "Happy With Me," a fierce challenge to media images that received more than 100,000 plays in just one week and placing #1 on Hype Machine’s Popular Charts.[6] The band continues to receive local and national support, with Nylon Magazine describing the track as "mind-blowingly addictive,"[11] Billboard grouping them in their annual "14 artists to watch in 2014",[12] and LA Weekly naming HOLYCHILD "one of the ten LA bands who are going to blow up in 2014." [13]

In 2014, the duo was an opening act for Danish singer MØ.

Produced by Louie Diller, HOLYCHILD’s debut EP, Mindspeak, was released in March 2014 through Glassnote, accompanied by a short film directed by Nistico.

The Shape of Brat Pop to Come

Their first full-length debut album The Shape of Brat Pop to Come was released in June 2015 on Glassnote.[14] Diller co-produced the LP with Grammy-nominated producers Greg Wells (Katy Perry, Adele) and Cian Riordan (5 Seconds of Summer, Keith Urban).[2] The first single "Running Behind" appears on the global Apple Watch commercial.[15] Holychild is scheduled to perform at ACL 2015 Weekend Two.

America Oil Lamb (EP)

In June 2016 the duo released a collab EP on Glassnote Records. The single, Rotten Teeth, was released in May 2016 accompanied by a music video directed by Nistico and featuring drag queens and famous Mexican reality and YouTube stars. The EP itself features collaborations with Kate Nash, RAC, Tkay Maidza, Mereki, MS MR, and Kitten. [16] “We felt we could stretch more on this record, since each song is a collaboration,” Diller said about the release. “It was fun to explore and show different sides of us on the EP…I think Liz’s voice and me producing/mixing most everything helps tie it together though, so there’s still a HOLYCHILD vibe.” [17]

Sophomore Album (coming Spring 2019)

After a two year hiatus, HOLYCHILD began releasing new music in 2018 starting with Wishing You Away in July.[18] The single, which dealt with domestic abuse in Nistico's childhood, started a trend of personal song topics for the band. Hundred Thousand Hearts is a love song, Carmelo is a song about sexual assault, and Bathroom Bitch is a provocative, feminist anthem about sex.[19][20][21] So far all of the songs have been produced by Diller, and the band announced their second album is due spring 2019.[9]
