In an unlikely acoustic cover of electro-pop artist Robyn, mini YouTube duo Lennon and Maisy have released their rendition of ‘Call Your Girlfriend.’
Though the choice of song is a bit odd considering the age of the songstresses, there’s something undeniably intriguing about the clip. The girls, in particular the older sister Lennon, are immensely talented and balance great vocals with their own percussion, which seems to be done with something from their fridge. Perfectly in sync, the girls have already achieved over 80,000 views. Could be the next kid duet to head to Ellen? Only time will tell, but until then the girls are getting their fair share of praise for this astonishing cover.
