Gather round, you girls and boys …
Today we are celebrating our 27th birthday so we simply had to post this song – first released on our album ORANGE.
It’s called Club 27 and pays homage to all the wonderful talent we have lost at the age of 27, an eerily common age for famous musicians to pass away at. This phenomenon has led to the creation of the 27 Club, an unofficial list that includes the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Brian Jones, Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse … the list goes on.
We know the timing of this release might appear a bit morbid, but we’ve always had a slightly macabre sense of humour. 😉
Now, we don’t have the slightest of intentions of joining that club this year, so rest assured this isn’t an announcement! We’ll keep eating our vegetables and putting on our seatbelts … We’ve got a new album to finish anyway!
The video was created and animated by the two of us. We enjoyed playing around with it and using some new animation effects that we hadn’t explored previously. We know it’s “just” a lyric video but again … we’ve got a new album to finish! 🙂
Here is to all the talent lost too soon and the magic they left behind,
Mona & Lisa

Hi there ladies! My first engagement in this industry was with Gary Numan when he pioneered his own web presence in the early 1990s and my company provided the tech and hosting. Gary’s was a family business as well – and Gary was and remains a complete control freak – in a good way. His brand and image has a been solid foundation for a 43 year career. The original… Read more »
Just commenting on the incredible bass on all the tunes. The Horner has just the right sound and precision. The whole family’s well taught. Any information on “dad’s” background? If I was told Sir Paul was backing the band I’d almost believe it.
I think a few of your lyrics were lost on some of your fans based on their comments, however they were not lost on me. Titles, and lines from THEIR songs like Jimi’s and Jim’s made yours so much more poignant. Love it! Keep it up. JB
Hello Mona & Lisa,
once upon a time I joined the Club 27, too. Nowadays I join the CLUB 63 – as a pensioneer.
I like your music including “When I’ m 64!”
Nah, fortunately, you never joined the “Club 27”. To join that, you would have needed to die at the age of 27…LOL
I’m sure you won’t join any stinkin’ “Club 63” either, and you will celebrate you next Bday with MLT’s cover of “When I’m Sixty Four” 😉
I didn’t get in on time for the actual Birthday but I am in now. So Happy Birthday Girls, you’re both so very talented and make beautiful music even more beautiful.
Hope you both had a beautiful birthday. ♥️♥️
Happy Birthday girls! Thank you for making the world a better, happier place! Thank you for all your wonderful music too!
Happy Birthday Twins! I myself am going to be the Grandfather of Twin Girls coming anytime now. My daughter is having her first children. Twin Girls and I can’t wait!
Thanks and congrats on becoming a Grandfather! We hope everything will go smoothly and that the twins will be happy and healthy. What an exciting time for you and your family!
Thank you! The girls should be arriving any day now. My daughter also has 2 beautiful and playful Huskies. She and her husband will have their hands full but at least my wife and I are only 2.5 miles away from them. I’m sure we will be there a lot!
Wish the both of you a very Happy Birthday! Enjoy listening to all your cd’s that I’ve purchased.
Here’s to your 27 years of talent and joy and many more of success,growth, and harmonies!
