From the BBC: Sister Monica and Siervas are a Peruvian-based rock’n’roll band comprised entirely of nuns. With several of the members of their convent already able to play musical instruments, this group of nuns in Lima decided to form a band. The nuns were invited to play for Pope Francis in Juarez, Mexico. “We prepared a variety of songs to encourage people,” Sister Monica Nobl said, adding that “our rhythms are well motivated,” since they are a mix of pop, rock and Latin pop genres. Their songs started to gain traction, so they made a music video, which has led to viral success. The nuns even played for Pope Francis in February 2016, and a crowd of 250,000 people in Juarez. The biggest hit on the album is a song called “Confia en Dios,” or “Trust in God.” Since it was posted to YouTube in October, the music video for the song has been viewed over 365,000 times.
