Recent Spotify Fresh Finds Pop-cover girl, Revenge Wife is the solo project of former HOLYCHILD lead singer, Liz Nistico. Those who have witnessed her life as an artist can attest that she’s no stranger to evolution.
In her time with HOLYCHILD, Nistico used their far-reaching platform to expound feminism in pop culture, releasing highly-personal songs “Wishing You Away,” “Carmelo,” and “Bathroom Bitch.” She was also able to further her skill set as an artist– directing all of the music videos, getting a record deal with Glassnote Records, touring the world, and playing multiple festivals (Lollapalooza, Governor’s Ball, ACL, FujiRock). Now her solo project is already taking off.
Her past experience is why Revenge Wife feels so refined. Garnering praise from highly acclaimed publications, including Paper, Flood Magazine, Substream Magazine, and Billboard she seems to be unbothered by the onset of attention. KCRW loved her song Niente, all in Italian. And Wonderland Mag says they’re “breaking the repeat button” on her music. The media are drawn to the overwhelming sense of liberation they heard in her music and the subtle disconnect between her lyrics and lighthearted melodies. She piqued everyone’s curiosity in the way she expressed extreme vulnerability within her lyrics, depicting heartbreak and past trauma, both in her personal life and in her time in the music industry, and combined them with an effervescent synth-pop sound.
When she isn’t working on Revenge Wife, Nistico shares her craft with other artists– directing music videos and co-writing songs for other artists (yes, she wrote “Xanax Damage” for Future). Accolades aside, she stands as a female artist who continues to grow in the public eye. Her sound is evolving and she’s moving into new territories as a songwriter, a director, a performer, a singer, and a person. She’s set to release her debut album as Revenge Wife in summer 2024.

Ace Artist in Residence & Byline present -- Tomorrow's Garden by Caroline Zimbalist at Gallery
With this seminal exhibition, Tomorrow’s Garden, we glimpse through a keyhole. Behind the door is an imagined, futuristic world where the overuse of plastic melted into nature and created new species of bioplastic lifeforms. An enchanted oyster lies in the ocean with aquatic creatures and flora. A hanging abstract, bioplastic jellyfish illuminates an underwater world, a forest where hybrid amphibians and fairies tend to the changed planet. Caroline questions what the future can look like in a world where nature…
