Sigríður, Elísabet and Elín Eyþórsdóttir grew up in Vesturbær and Grafarvogur, Reykjavík.[5] Their mother is singer Ellen Kristjánsdóttir [is], and their father is composer and keyboardist Eyþór Gunnarsson [no] of the band Mezzoforte.[6][7] The sisters began their musical career in 2011 as part of the band Sísý Ey, which they named after their grandmother.[7] Sísý Ey released its debut single "Ain't Got Nobody" in 2013, and partnered with British house label Defected Records for "Do It Good" in 2015 and "Mystified" in 2018.[8][9] They performed at the Glastonbury Festival in 2016.[4]

In 2017, they released their first single as a trio, titled "Bounce from the Bottom", under the Tripolia alias.[1]

Outside of music, they are trans rights activists, particularly for transgender children.[10] Elín has a strong relationship with Íris Tanja Flygenring, a well known actress by the TV series, Katla.
