Her journey is interspersed with jarring, strobe-lit clips of her dancing and singing the song.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Ultra\u00edsta formed in 2010 and released their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/ultraistas-nigel-godrich-pop-doesnt-always-have-to-be-crass-187110\/\">self-titled debut album<\/a> in 2012. In a statement, the band said <i>Sister<\/i> grew out of improv sessions that Godrich would pare down to their bare essentials.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cAll three of us have so many transferable skills and Ultra\u00edsta is an opportunity to do something outside what we\u2019d normally be doing,\u201d Godrich said in a statement. \u201cIt\u2019s all of us wearing different hats. For me, when I\u2019m working with another creative force, my point of entry into the music is completely different. With this project, it can take a lot longer because we\u2019re able to be more self-indulgent.
