New York – LA’s brat pop band, HOLYCHILD has unveiled video for “U Make Me Sick”. The song is off of the band’s debut album, The Shape of Brat Pop to Come which dropped June 2nd via Glassnote Records.
Of the video, HOLYCHILD’s Liz Nistico said “I co-directed this video with one of my favorite photographers, Angelo Kritikos. I wanted it to feel like a homemade porn from 1978, and for it to capture the extremes of a relationship. For me, it’s either completely perfect, or frustrating, or depressing or utterly detached. I find beauty in that passion even when hurting from it. I’m still trying to figure out if masochism is something worth escaping.”
HOLYCHILD will hit the road with WALK THE MOON starting October 6th in Houston, TX and wrapping October 26 in San Francisco at The Masonic. HOLYCHILD will also be performing at Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits. For all tour and ticket information, check out holychildmusic.com

HOLYCHILD is comprised of Liz Nistico and Louie Diller. They met in college in 2011, have been writing music ever since and call their genre, brat pop. On their debut album The Shape Of Brat Pop to Come, HOLYCHILD takes on nothing less than the idea of power dynamics and inequality—be it racial, social status, or gender-motivated. The beats are wild (thanks in no small part to Diller’s stint in Cuba studying Afro-Cuban drumming), and the tongues are placed firmly in cheek. Nistico assures that while their message is clear, it’s not definitive. “After all, we’re all humans, right? At the end of the day HOLYCHILD is about posing questions—not providing answers.”
