about

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).

Their first single 'Mourning Sickness' released on all streaming platforms on the 23rd of February eases you into their world. Woozy psychedelic-tinged guitars and enveloping vocals that detail the bleary moments after you wake. North Walian singer-songwriter Kameron Jolliffe vividly captures the wistful memories of growing up. With his infectious vocals burrowing their way into your head. Possessing a carousel of percussion, a tapestry of beguiling rock sound, that takes influence from the sounds of the 60s and 70s but also the early 90s indie and gaze scene of bands like, My Bloody Valentine, Ride and Spiritualized.

Kameron Jolliffe says of the bands debut single; “Mourning Sickness was the first song I ever wrote when I was 16, and it feels like it makes sense for it to be released first, almost like an ode to my past self and what was happening in my life at that time.“

Sister Envy have been busy honing their sound in the studio with Welsh producers Owain Ginsberg (Hippies Vs Ghosts) & Scott Marsden (Holy Coves) over recent months getting ready for ‘Mourning Sickness’ their debut single release this February.

Their initial three singles were recorded in Liverpool at the famous Motor Museum Studio with Ben Harper. Mixed in France by Welsh legend Owain Ginsberg and mastered in Austin Texas by American producer Erik Wofford (The Black Angels). Over the next twelve months, Sister Envy will invite you into their fascinating world over a series of singles releases and shows including a debut performance at Focus Wales in May. Gradually revealing the different faces of their tapestry of sound and fledgling experience.

lyrics

Took your love for yourself
You didnt no one else
And you're waking up at 4 in the morning
Shut off my brain that's boring
But I don't feel a thing

Hard to breath
Cough it up
Spit it up
Make no fuss
And you're waking up at 4 in the morning
Shut off my brain that's boring

But I don't feel a thing
No I don't feel a thing
I don't feel a thing

Can you hear these words i'm calling
Laying down feels like I'm falling
Can you hear these words i'm calling
Feeling sick in the morning

Feeling sick in the morning
Feeling sick in the morning
Feeling sick in the morning
Feeling sick and I don't know where I live

Falling down the path again
Stay at home with me my friend
I don't wanna wake up on sunday morning
Display a fake smile that's boring

I dont feel a thing
I don't feel a thing
I don't feel a thing

Cause you're feeling sick in the morning

Feeling sick in the morning
Feeling sick in the morning
Feeling sick in the morning
Feeling sick and I don't know where I live
