So yesterday we spent the whole day at Abbey Road Studios!
We were recording and filming in Studio One – what a day! There is so much history in this place it’s unbelievable! The rooms are filled with legendary equipment and the walls are covered in legendary moments. If only they could talk!
We got told that while recording we stood in the same spot that Mick Jagger, Keith Moon and Marianne Faithfull were sat when the Beatles did the live broadcast of “All You Need Is Love”. They still use the same microphones as they did back then, and everything still looks like we all know it from the countless pictures and videos.
We recorded a few songs there with Steve Harley and afterwards got turned into holograms with a special filming technique! And yeah, it was as much fun as it sounds! We can’t wait to see the finished results.
We will keep you posted as we get updated on any news.
So thrilled to have been part of this experience! We recorded in Abbey Road Studio One – surreal!

love what you do would love to meet you someday if i get a cha
Myself and my now wife visited the studios in 1983. It was the first time they had been open to the public, and this was due to building work taking place and was by ticket only. We were taken into Studio 2 and shown a film of the history of the building and then allowed to roam around taking photos with the instruments. There were many Beatles instruments but not originals. The only instrument still there was an Harmonium and this is the instrument used in ‘We can work it out’ and other songs. We were given fascinating snippets of information such as the walls are covered with ‘bags of seaweed’ which give a good acoustic and prevent outside noise!. I have never heard such clear sound in my life. It was a wonderful experience to be in the very space that the music that has meant so much to me was made. I was 23 years old at the time and now it’s almost a life long memory. I feel so lucky and privileged to have experienced this and certainly we all are. Best wishes, Steve
How lucky you two are to have had that experience! Of course, you deserve this as you’re both so talented! I have been on the outside of Abbey Road Studios 3 times during my trips to London and also Liverpool. The last time was 2008, & I don’t believe they had tours at the studio back then. Keep doing what you’re doing! I love your new CD — “Why,” and started writing notes for a review. I’ll finish it soon; just been too busy!
Love to you and best wishes!
It sounds like it was a great day for all, Thanks again for continuing the very type of music that spoke to the generations of people who listen today. Its the real Music , the kind that touches your very soul !!!
So happy for you that you got to work in Studio one!! I dream of seeing it someday. I just discovered you yesterday and wow what a Christmas present! You are exactly what music needs and has been needing for a long time! I’m a GenX Beatles fan and I fell in love with you instantly. You have brilliantly managed to mix 60’s influences with your own unique style. It’s also real, real vocals, real people playing real instruments. I love it so much!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I am awed by Mona’s and Lisa’s talent and entrepreneurial spirit. Their harmonies are spot-on and their instrumetal playing is rock solid. Great job, ladies! Keep at it.
I did the Abbey Road tour in 2010. What a day indeed! If those walls could sing!

yes I agree with all the compliments on here. You are amazing with a talent and vocal skills that can only be developed so naturally by the special bond that twins have. l listened to your songs. so many remind me of early Beatles..which is what I am into. I would love to get you to do a gig at a folk club that I sing at in Croydon….you won’t get paid but it’s worth a cheeky ask !!! lol
Hi. I have been a musician for about 45 years, I have many musician friends, most would say. Many of them play in tribute bands.
I never liked tribute bands, although I appreciate the enormous effort involved in achieving it.
But when I listen to the MonaLisa Twins, a fresh air enters my ears and my brain. Thank you for your contribution.
A big hug from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
I just came upon your videos.. I love your work. Thanks for bringing back those favorite Beatles’ songs and doing them in a great way. You both are beautiful, with great voices and a fun energy about you that makes you now one of my favorites.. I hope you come to the USA soon. Have you had the opportunity to meet Sir Paul????
Wow. I can’t imagine a day like that. I’m so happy you had the chance to be there. And maybe a bit envious. Haha. Thanks for sharing. I’ll keep watching for your posts. Keith
We love your “Style”! Will yo be coming to USA anytime soon. We love the Beatles and your snappy renditions.
