Hi Everyone,

We're posting this video on #LolaDay, the 50th Birthday of one of our favourite songs by one of our favourite British rock bands.

There is something so unorthodox, unapologetic and poetically blunt about The Kinks' music. The predecessor to punk. Untamed yet melodic, introspective, witty and observational in the most creative, captivating way. Nothing gives you a more vivid picture of parts of British culture than diving into a Kinks album. We love these guys.

We hope we did this song proud and that you enjoy our take on this classic. Us and Papa Rudi (on bass and keys) had an absolute blast working on it. Please leave a comment and share your thoughts with us.

A huge Thank You to Karen and Ray Davies for getting in touch and inviting us to take part in the #LolaDay celebrations ♥

Stay Groovy,
Mona & Lisa

Dad’s heart would be bursting with pride making music with his daughters, I’m 80 and was fortunate enough to have done the same with my daughters, same birthday, 2years apart, many years ago, precious memories 🎸🥰☺️🇦🇺

Great rendition of one of the greatest rock songs ever. The Kinks and Ray Davies I’m sure approve! Well done!

I love these ladies for many reasons, but one HUGE reason is that they are bringing new life into some of these great songs. I help out in a music store on occasions and I have noticed some many teens coming in now, asking me to show them how to play so many of these types of songs, especially songs by the Beatles, that these ladies have breathed new life into. I am thankful for that. They are very straight forward and talented.

Good, clean copy - no gimmicks or auto-tune rubbish .. Old-School, the way it should be .. Well played girls.

One of the greatest lyric moments in pop "...but I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man and so's Lola". Brilliant.

Guys, listen to their originals if you haven't, and buy them. Support these ladies, they're making so much good happen

I'm a big fan of these girls. And I'm an old man that hates everything lol.

When you're soon to turn 73, a tune like this, so well presented by two lovely ladies, brings back memories from the past. That's a great thing we all need. Brings back the memory of when I fell in love for the fist time - and it was great and touching to think of the first wobbly steps you took. So big bow for my favorite twins and thank you.

Wonderfully talented girls. Re-living my youth again (I'm 72) and loving every minute of it. Many thanks.

Sometimes the YouTube rabbit hole takes you to somewhere wonderful. Today I discovered the MonaLisa Twins. Amazing.

One of the great rock tunes of all time. You ladies (and your papa) honored the tune with a GREAT cover!

[michaelrafa]

I was lucky enought to see the Kinks live way back when. This version is so much more fun and better with beautiful Mona and Lisa singing these lyrics!! You two really ROCK!!

[jefferyohlwine]

Wow! Best cover of "Lola" ever! Unrivaled harmonies from Mona and Lisa, not to mention their awesome instrumental prowess and versatility! And their dad ain't half bad either! Whether classic covers or fresh originals, this family always impresses!

[johns.]

These 2 girls are just so beautiful and so talented. I Love Them to Death!
