They don't just do covers. They are independent song writing artists in their own right.

Will never replace The Beatles version for me but still very good.

Absolutely, no artist who respect music would ever claim, or try to pretend to be better than the Beatles.

Quote from the MonaLisa Twins:
"It’s hard to compete with perfection. But then, what we do has never been about “improving” on any of the songs we cover. We pick songs because we love them, because we want to honour them and to experience performing and interpreting them ourselves. We like tapping into the magic of these songs and the people that created them."

Here is a live Beatles cover I especially like and I think they honour the Beatles with an exceptional performance.

I didn't know it was possible to make such a sublime song even more beautiful. MonaLisa Twins somehow managed to add even more beauty with their masterful singing and musicianship with their interpretation of this Joni Mitchell masterpiece. Goosebumps all over. Makes this Canadian ultra proud.

My guitar heroes! Mona's incredible rock vocals and Lisa really tears it up with those awesome lead guitar riffs. Rock and Roll at it's best! Your live album rocks, a rock and roll lovers must have album! Mona and Lisa really capture the essence of what rock and roll is all about with their version of this super Kink classic.

Here is a MonaLisa Twins original rock song, just released on youtube today, honoring the many brilliant rockers we lost too soon. These 27 years old twins know how to rock, absolutely brilliantly. You've seen them here with great covers of the classic rock songs rocking out on stage, and now here is their own written by Mona and Lisa, and they can write songs just as good as they can play them. They do the likes of Hendricks, Floyd, and Zeppelin superb justice!


Love Mona's rocker lead vocals, and Lisa's incredible howling guitar work.
