Sisu is an American indie rock band from Los Angeles, founded in 2009 by Sandra Vu.[1] The band consists of Vu (vocals, guitar, flute), Ryan Wood (bass, synth), David South (bass), Julianna Medeiros (keyboards, backing vocals) and Nathanael Keefer (drums).[2]

Sisu employs traditional and electronic instruments, and their sound has been categorized as psychedelic pop, electronic and shoegaze.[3]
