Your choices
One thing that’s very obvious about you guys is you have the courage to make very difficult choices: you dropped out of school at 15 to pursue your music, you moved to England because it gave you more opportunity, you quit the Cavern to focus on songwriting and recording, you’ve chosen to do everything on your own without the support of the music industry: where does all that independence come from?
I’m sure your dad and Michaela were very discouraging about your dropping out of school yet you found a way to not only do it but to keep them close to you as you were making a decision I’m certain they were uncomfortable with. So that ability to communicate while making very big decisions- is that something you got from your dad or is that something that’s uniquely a MonaLisa thing? -

Hi Tim! Whenever we’ve made big decisions like the ones you mentioned (dropping out of school, moving to England, quitting Cavern etc.) it was always the obvious next thing to do (for the 4 of us). We’re all so tuned into what we’re trying to do here that we don’t really have to convince each other to make bold steps. Dad and Michaela have taught us and lived by that ever since we can imagine. They were never “conventional” people and from the moment we decided to create “MonaLisa Twins” as a family, everyone put their heart and soul into it. So every “bold” decision in the past seemed like the right thing to do for all of us. Believe me when I say that they were the first to bring up many of the craziest (but in the end most worthwhile) ideas haha. To say we’re lucky to have parents and friends like that is an understatement 😉
