“In It For Love” & Album Release

“The Duo Sessions II” album is out now!

Our 12th album is ready and we couldn’t be happier!

14 acoustic versions of our favourite covers and originals, all originally recorded for the MLT Club.

We know many of you who pre-ordered the album have received their parcels in the mail already. If you haven’t ordered yet, you can get your CD HERE. The Digital Downloads are now also available! Buying from our website means that 100% of the revenue will go right back into new music and videos! 🙂

You can also stream the album in the MLT Club and on all the major music platforms.

And of course, we also had to upload a new Duo Session Video today, to celebrate! 😉

This version of our original song “In It For Love” (see the video above) will be on the album alongside 13 other stripped-back Duo Sessions. We even re-recorded the very first song we ever wrote at the age of 13 and got our dad to join us on another track! 

We initially recorded all these songs/videos for the MLT Club, which helped make this whole project possible. If it wasn’t for the amazing support of our members, this album wouldn’t exist. As always, if you are (or become) an MLT Club member, we will sign the album for you as a way to say Thank You ♥

If you like our acoustic, stripped-back performances that we like to post to YouTube, you will enjoy this album. It’s a compilation of all recent Duo Sessions plus some that you haven’t heard yet, unless you’re an MLT Club member. But we also wrote a new original song especially for this record!

“WHY?” Vinyl – Pre-Order NOW

Pre-Sale has started! Release Day: March 19th

After months of waiting for our “WHY?” vinyl to come back from the pressing plant, we have finally been given a delivery date, and pre-orders can start!

The official release date will be March 19th, and we will aim to dispatch all pre-orders before or on the day.

If you are an MLT Club member, we will also sign the cover of your vinyl record so perhaps this is a good opportunity to try out the MLT Club! 🙂

We also did a repress of the ORANGE vinyl, this time on classic black vinyl and without the foldable cover, 3D spot-gloss finish or printed inner sleeve. The new ORANGE vinyl is much simpler but therefore also a lot cheaper, so you can now choose between the more affordable option or still pick up one of the remaining limited-edition coloured vinyl with all its bells and whistles (UPDATE: Limited-Edition is sold out now).

Bundles (-10%)

Have a look around the online store for any additional music or merch you might want to pick up with your order! 🙂

We LOVE vinyl, and the vinyl-boom over the last few years excites us a lot. It’s great to see it come back, even though that means ridiculously long production lead times because all the remaining pressing plants in Europe are so overworked! Well, not long now …

Stay groovy,

“Make Show” & Album Release

Our new album “WHY?” is out now!

The day we’ve been looking forward to and working towards for months, no, years has finally come! Our third original album is now officially released and we made a new music video for its opening track “Make Show” to share today.

You can stream the album on all the major music platforms but a special huge Thank You  goes to everyone who has (pre-)ordered the CD from our website www.monalisa-twins.com. You can now also get the download version there. Buying from our website means we’re getting 100% of the revenue which will go right back into new music and videos!

Your support means the world and allows us to keep making music so freely and independently.

We are so happy and proud and excited to share this new music with you!

Stay groovy, keep asking,

Album Update & Donation Buttons!

We’re getting there …

We’ve been talking about our next original album for a long time now but these past months we’ve made a lot of progress on it and we’re currently working on the final two songs.

We’ve mapped out a realistic time plan which means we will be able to announce a release date soon!

With the album getting closer and closer to being done, more and more things are entering the production phase. We’re starting to look at album art designs, CD printing options, merch development, …

We also thought about a way to properly express our gratitude for those who went above and beyond this year to make this upcoming album possible.

While the MLT Club and album & merch sales are helping us to stay financially afloat on a day-to-day basis (thank you all!), it’s the incredible donations by some of you that help cover all the bigger costs that go into recording and producing a new record and everything that goes along with it.

So, we created a special “Thank You” badge …

Stay groovy,

-15% Spring Sale & Good Day Sunshine – New Video

Good Day Sunshine!

To ring in the springtime, we’ve uploaded another Duo Session from the MLT Club archives to our official YouTube channel!

“Good Day Sunshine” by the Beatles, a song that fits perfectly with the great weather we’ve had here in the UK this past week. We don’t know what it’s like where you live but we couldn’t be more excited about finally seeing some plants starting to bloom and feeling some sunrays on our skin. Everything is coming alive again and it’s beautiful ♥


-15% Spring Sale!

We decided to do a little spring sale until the end of March. So whether you’d like to grab The Duo Sessions album (which includes today’s song) or get your hands on some merch, you can use the code “Spring15” for 15% off your entire order.

Of course, you can also join the MLT Club, for which we originally recorded this Duo Session. It’s a membership area on our website where you can find lots more exclusive Duo Sessions, original music, making-of and Q&A videos, a forum and more. More info here.

Questionable – New Video

We just uploaded a new video!

The third single off our upcoming album is here, and it’s … Questionable! 😉

We filmed this video last weekend and have spent the last 7 days editing and getting it ready for today.

Why today? Because February 21st marks the birthday of our late friend, Steve from Miami, who was one of the earliest and biggest supporters of our musical journey. We haven’t missed posting a birthday upload in his honour and memory in 9 years, and today it is a fun and light-hearted original song that we think he would have really enjoyed.

As you can imagine, we had an awful lot of fun on set and want to say a special Thank You to all the actors involved. Everyone was such a good sport!

In order of appearance: Kyle Finn, Vampy Jordan, Pete Hirst, Shane Senior, Jack Bodhi, Josh Lines, Kartheek Saladi, Franklyn Jacks, James Cameron!

We’d love to hear what you think in the comments here on this post or directly on YouTube! YouTube likes & comments always help us reach more people (it boosts the algorithm there) so please feel free to comment and share wherever you can! 🙂

MLT Club members have already heard the song a couple of weeks ago, so if you too want to get access to new music earlier while supporting us at the same time, we welcome you to check out the MLT Club.

We are already working on another original tune and are excited to have our next album coming together song by song. MLT Club members get Early Access to most of the songs!

It’s such a good feeling to be able to share singles from it with you whenever we like, which is another reason why we value being independent artists so much – no label telling us about the timing of releases and we are literally able to write, record, film and publish a new tune all in the matter of a couple of weeks. 🙂

So let’s get straight back into the studio!

Thanks for watching and always stay groovy!

Tonight You Belong To Me – New Video

We just uploaded a new video!

Tonight You Belong To Me is an almost one hundred year old song (written in 1926) that has been in the charts several times since its creation. It’s been played by different artists and used in many movies and commercials.

It’s easy to see why! It’s such a simple yet unique little tune that sticks in your head forever. We’ve been playing it for many, many years and recorded this video for our MLT Club quite a while ago.

Today we uploaded it to our YouTube channel, so everyone else can watch it, too!

If you want to hear some new Duo Sessions that have not been released on any album yet, we welcome you to join the MLT Club where we post new Duo Sessions and other exclusive content regularly as a “Thank You” for supporting us on our journey!

Join the MLT Club

If you like this cover you can find it on our album The Duo Sessions where you will also hear another 14 songs played by just the two of us.

A mixture of 60s and 70s covers as well as some stripped-down versions of our original tunes.

We’re still hard at work on the new album and are planning to release another single in February!

2022 has started off well for us, and we’re planning to keep that momentum going until that new record is out 🙂

You’ll hear from us again soon,

Songbird – New Video

May we introduce a new song …

Today we’re releasing a new original song + video … Songbird!

In the past, we’ve always released a Christmas song around this time of the year. But since we’ve been working on our original music more than ever, and have already released a whole CHRISTMAS album in 2019, we decided to rather spend the time and film a video for one of our new original songs.

It’s going to be part of our next album and while you can’t pre-order that (yet), you can already download the single!

As always, we’d love to hear from you, both on our website and in the YouTube comments ♥
