Long, long time ago, we can still remember …
… when we uploaded our first ever YouTube video 10 years ago today!
That’s a bit less than half our lives ago. Seems crazy when we say it like that. Back then we were only 13 years old and making baby steps towards a musical career, building our YouTube channel, becoming better musicians and eventually “meeting” all of you throughout the years.
If you feel like going down memory lane with us and see our baby faces, here is the playlist to all those very early videos – don’t let the hair colour throw you off, that’s really us (performing with Papa Rudi and Stepmum Michaela ♥) 😉
Watch our earliest videos here.
Most of you have probably come across our music on YouTube and have seen at least one of our 102 videos. For us working on the visuals of a songs is extremely important – it gives us freedom to put another creative layer on the music experience and we just love playing around with new ideas, equipment, locations and effects.
That’s why tomorrow we will finally be shooting our next video. If you want to follow what’s going on, keep an eye out on our Instagram Story. We’ll take you along on the ride!
Feel free to leave us a comment below telling us what video first introduced you to our music, your favourite clips and when you came across them – we love hearing these kinds of things 🙂
Talk soon and stay groovy,
Mona & Lisa
This is a lovely photo of the Wagner family. Any chance of having it made into a poster and added to your memorabilia store?
I discovered the MonaLisa Twins in June of 2018 while looking for a recording of While My Guitar Gently Weeps that featured George on lead guitar instead of Eric Clapton. Failing that, I decided to give a listen to their version and was immediately knocked out. Of course, at that time I didn’t know one twin from the other but I realized that Lisa’s lead guitar licks were probably closer… Read more »
I discovered the MonaLisa Twins music in March of 2017 one evening searching on You Tube for different 60’s songs I enjoyed. At the time I was a little depressed coming out of a year of personal loss. I happened upon Mona and Lisa’s cover of Scott McKenzie’s “San Francisco”, and it was the most beautiful version of that favorite song I ever heard. The video reminded me of the… Read more »
I grew up hearing something more in contemporary music in the old days than most people did, and I was somewhat odd in that regard. Both my parents were professional classical musicians but I noticed they would often take delight in popular music at times. Because of my parents, I got to work with opera companies, and one time, I met The Carpenters and actually got to sing with them… Read more »

Hey ladies , greetings from a place you know well down under ….Adelaide !!
I’m another of your 67 year old fans. The first YouTube video of yours I ever heard was about 8 years ago when I found “I Wish I Was a Punkrocker…” Of course I had to check out your other covers, and fell in love with all of them. The Beach Boys and Beatles are my two favorite groups of all time. I don’t think I have a favorite, although… Read more »
First video I saw was You’re Going to Lose That Girl (Youtube) perfect! Is that a Gretsch and a Rickenbacker? Great sound. You must be famous now! Loving your music/vids.
I am 67 years old and i think i have lived through the best music ever recorded. I sure miss the music of the 60,s & 70,s, that is when it had class and originality. I,m so glad i discovered ( 6 years ago) you multi talented sisters. The first video what introduced me to your music was ,,Love is al around,, . I was searching for this Troggs classic… Read more »

Your passion is contagious to all your fans, and your commitment and tenaciousness are so admirable. I think that’s what impresses me most when watching the videos and listening to your music. You are all just so dedicated to getting to where you want to… Read more »
