Sister Wives
From the highest valleys and smoothest seas they rise! Sheffield four-piece Sister Wives tell wild tales that flit between Welsh and English language, sung over cavernous melodies and hypnotic beats. Their post-punk, prog-flecked psychedelia rumbles deep inside your soul and shames all those who deserve it.

Sister Wives have just signed to Libertino Records and recently released a split single with labelmates Tacsidermi, with their first full-length album coming later this year. This follows debut EP, Gweler Ein Gofid (recently re-released on vinyl with three new remixes from Gnoomes, Ani Glass and Mandy, Indiana) and 2020’s Crags AA-single.

The notions of protection, ancient ritual and female power are of great interest to Sister Wives. They explain, "Many of our lyrics look into summoning the consciousness of the land in times of despair; calling upon the ancient gods that live in the rocks, woods, lakes, seas and trees, and exploring spiritual suspicions and witchcraft.”

Sister Wives have previously been invited to support Gwenno, The International Teachers of Pop, Crack Cloud, The Eccentronic Research Council, Current Affairs, Kaputt, and Flasher, and get regular play on BBC 6Music, BBC Wales and BBC Cymru.

They’ve played Green Man Festival, SWN Festival, Sensoria Festival, FOCUS Wales, Launchpad Festival and have more headline dates coming up including an Oct tour.

“the music of Sheffield’s Sister Wives seems to be less written and more hewn from the natural landscape around them, coming out wild and powerful as a perfect connection between humanity and the planet below” - For The Rabbits

“Such a strange and intoxicating incantation.. utterly wonderful... Not just one of the finest things I’ve played this year, one of the finest things I’ve played in ANY year” - Adam Walton, BBC Wales
