Ibeyi celebrate their bond on “Sister 2 Sister”
The Afro-Cuban, French twins will drop their newly announced album, Spell 31, on May 6 via XL Recordings.
Ibeyi, the duo of twin sisters Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Díaz, teased a new album in November when they shared "Made Of Gold," a track from its sessions featuring Pa Salieu. Now, they've officially announced the project: Spell 31 is due out May 6 on XL Recordings, and its second single, "Sister 2 Sister," is out today.
Along with Salieu, the forthcoming record will feature Jorja Smith, Ibeyi's parents, and BERWYN, who joins the twins for a cover of Black Flag's "Rise Above."
"Sister 2 Sister" comes with a video directed by Colin Solal Cardo and coreographed by Kiani Del Valle, who emphasizes the strength of the sisters' bond through the synchronicity of their dance. Watch it below, and read The FADER's 2017 Ibeyi cover story here.
