Dublin Shoegaze artist Cruel Sister aka Faith Nico has shared her third single ‘chihiro’ inspired by the main character from Studio Ghibli’s classic Spirited Away.

“I remember the first time I saw it, I think I was like 8 or 9, I had never seen anything like it. There was something so terrifying but also so exciting about the world Chihiro enters, and all the brave things she must do to save her and her parents’ lives even though she was just a kid like me. It was a massive influence on me as a person and I would watch it every week way back when you could borrow DVDs from Chartbusters and Xtravision.”

‘chihiro’ is accompanied by Cruel Sisters’ debut music video directed by Ruth Hodder. ‘Chihiro’ and 2021 singles ‘too much’ and ‘my forever’ will appear on Cruel Sister’s debut EP ‘girls my age’ which is set for release on September 9th.
