Holychild (stylized as HOLYCHILD) was an American indie pop duo from Los Angeles, California. 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 their full-length debut album The Shape of Brat Pop to Come in 2015.[2] After a two-year hiatus, the band broke their silence with four singles in 2018.[7][8] Their second studio album, The Theatrical Death of Julie Delicious, was released in 2019.[9]

The duo disbanded in 2020, citing a desire to work on solo projects.[10] Diller now works as a producer, while Nistico releases music under the name Revenge Wife.
