The group consists of singer, songwriter and guitarist Delilah Holliday and drummer Ursula Holliday.
Sisters Delilah and Ursula Holliday had played together in a two piece called Typical Girls, before forming Skinny Girl Diet with their cousin Amelia Cutler around 2010 whilst all were in their early teens. The name is a reference to feminist critique of the dieting industry. Amelia left the band in 2017; the Holliday sisters continue as a two piece.
Skinny Girl Diet performed their first gig in their early teens as the opening act for former Slits guitarist Viv Albertine. Since then, they have become known for bringing an updated approach to the feminist art punk ideals associated with the riot grrrl Movement of the 1990s. They have been vocal about addressing the lack of female musicians that still exists in today's music industry, as well as other issues of equality under a contemporary feminist context.
The group also contributed work to the "Female Matters" exhibition to raise funds and awareness about the fight against FGM.
In 2015, they were featured on Billboard.com's list of "20 All-Female Bands You Need To Know." and featured on the cover of The Beat Magazine's Spring Issue.
