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. The band signed to Glassnote Records in 2013, 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. 　　Holychild formed in college at George Washington University in D.C., where Diller was the musical accompanist for Nistico’s modern dance class, the two were magnetically drawn to each other’s creativity and ability to recognize the power music holds. Forming HOLYCHILD and moving to L.A. after graduation, the two started crafting music that subtly challenges the listener to think about life while using breathlessly enigmatic arrangements that are intertwined with a carefree sincerity heard in Nistico’s vocals. 　　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. The band continues to receive local and national support, with Nylon Magazine describing the track as "mind-blowingly addictive," Billboard grouping them in their annual "14 artists to watch in 2014", and LA Weekly naming HOLYCHILD "one of the ten LA bands who are going to blow up in 2014." 　　Produced by Louie Diller, HOLYCHILD’s debut EP, MindSpeak, was released in March 2014 through Glassnote, accompanied by a short film directed by Nistico. 　　Their first full-length debut album The Shape of Brat Pop to Come was released in June 2015 on Glassnote. Diller co-produced the LP with Grammy-nominated producers Greg Wells (Katy Perry, Adele) and Cian Riordan (5 Seconds of Summer, Keith Urban). The first single "Running Behind" appears on the global Apple Watch commercial.
