Indie Revolution Single Of The Week – Sister Envy ‘Tide’

Indie Revolutions Single Of The Week is the transcendent ‘Tide’ by Sister Envy.

Following on from their warmly received debut single ‘Mourning Sickness’ North Wales band Sister Envy grace us with yet another captivating single, the extraordinary ‘Tide’.

‘Tide’ lures you in with soothing guitar tones and cinematic psychedelia, it grows from enveloping heart on the sleeve melodies, decorated in a carousel of psych tinged guitars into a sprawling epic anthem.

‘I’ll be the one to save you’ promises Joliffe in a track that’s woozy, romantic, mysterious yet with a sting in the tail. Gradually swelling into a fuzz laden chorus that has elements of the shoegaze anthems of Ride. Verve or the grungy gaze of early Smashing Pumpkins. It’s another fascinating glimpse of Sister’s Envy’s sonic arsenal and world of intrigue and ambition that looks at the horizon beyond their North Walian homes. 

Vocalist and guitarist, Kameron Jolliffe says: “Tide is the first song we recorded together as a band, I wrote it whilst severely hungover one sunny afternoon, it was one of those days where the moon was visible.. I wrote it about someone I used to see, a toxic relationship that still pulls you in just to inevitably throw you back.”

Sister Envy hail from the North Wales coast, a place of mystery, harshness, and beauty, a place where opportunity is blocked for younger people yet dreams can break through. It’s here that Sister Envy met at college. This fast-emerging Alternative Psychedelic rock quartet are a brand new signing to North Wales label Yr Wyddfa Records Snowdonia (home to Holy Coves). 

Sister Envy are Kameron Jolliffe (Vocals and Lead Guitar), Matty Waring (Guitar), Callum Jones (Bass) and Ryan Roberts (Drums). The band are a new signing to North Wales label Yr Wyddfa Records Snowdonia.

They have crafted their sound in the studio with Welsh producers Owain Ginsberg (Hippies Vs. Ghosts) and Scott Marsden (Holy Coves).

The lunar single ‘Tide’ is out now on all streaming platforms.

The Pastimes Release Debut Single ‘Tide’


I first stumbled on The Pastimes when they supported my band Holy Coves at Front Room in Rhyl earlier this year, they came highly recommended from the venue promoter Steve Rastin. From the very first note they blew me away, they are definitely my new favourite band. A band with so much potential with the right support. Young enough to develop their sound, phenomenal live performers and if their first recording ‘Tide’ is anything to go by then they have bags of potential in the studio too. It wont be long until this band graces us with their debut album and the thought of this really excites me.

From melodic shoegaze sounds to a twist of heavy grunge this song captures me instantly. The Pastimes are a band to watch out for. Their fantastic single ‘Tide’ lures you in with its seascape vibes of the rising and falling of the sea, dreamy vocals, dark lyrics and that heavy kick of distortion is when I instantly know I’ve fallen in love.

“I’ll be the one to save you when you’re high
I’ll try
The moon couldn’t even pull your tide”

‘Tide’ was recorded at The Motor Museum Studio in Liverpool, Ben Harper produced and mixed the track, Graeme Lynch at Two Zero Nine mastered the track.
The band have returned to the studio to record their Debut EP.
