4. GiGi sisters

The GiGi Sisters, also known as ‘The GiGi’s’ for short are three Canadian sisters aged 19, 17 and 14f who hails from the city of Mississauga. Alexandra, Stefanie and Katharine Petkovski have been involved with music their whole lives – being classically trained in RCM piano since the ages of 5 and having grown up performing in various festivals and galas, they just want to share their love of music with as many people as they possibly can. The GiGi Sisters write their own original songs as well as do unique covers, singing in three-part harmony while playing various instruments such as the piano, guitar and percussive instruments. Their music style is a combination of indie/folk/country/blues/soul in a pop casing – creating a fresh, youthful sound in a surprising amount of maturity for their ages! Truth in life, love and experience is a quality that The GiGi Sisters honour and reflect in their style of singing and they hope to spread this source of honesty with audiences of all demographics. Having fun and a sense of humour are also key aspects in their lives in general. Besides their popular YouTube channel, they also have a Facebook page: www.facebook.com/theGiGisisters. Most recently featured on the cover page of the Arts & Entertainment section of the Mississauga Newspaper, The GiGi Sisters are excited to show their music to the world and are currently working on their official demo CD.

7. Alissa & Lyz

Alissa Liebler (15) and Lyz Mortati (15) have been best friends for a number of years now so it is no surprise that they are connected by their mutual love for singing country music and especially their mutual admiration of Taylor Swift. They are both self-taught musicians and they both play a variety of instruments including guitar, piano, and banjo. Ever since they found out that their voices complimented each other, they began to harmonize down the school hallways to some of their favourite songs. After creating their own YouTube channel and recording their first song, they were suddenly requested by a number of people to sing at various gigs, charity events, and school programs. Currently, they have around 8,000 views on their biggest viral hit “Marry You” by Bruno Mars, 24,000 total video views, 200 subscribers on their YouTube channel and over 200 likes on the Alissa & Lyz Facebook page. Both girls have now become songwriters and they are grateful for the opportunity to do what they love. They would also like to thank anyone who has ever listened to their music or supported them in what they do.

  46. sorry for my bad english but alissa and lyz u have fans here in colombia two!!! all my frends voted for u and we hope u win 🙂

  47. This is a message to EVERYONE in the competition, regardless of what rank you are with respect to voting. Alissa and I believe that every single person in this competition deserves to and SHOULD win. You all are so unbelievably talented; and if you weren’t, you wouldn’t have been picked to be in this competition. We don’t want anybody to think that Alissa and I aren’t taking this competition seriously because we’re “already famous.” honest to god, we get excited when one of our Facebook friends tells us that they voted or they watched our videos because it means that they’re supporting us. We hve been told by our younger fans that were inspirational and were role models, and that means so much to us that we can’t even put it into words. If someone on here were to say that they voted or us from another country or something, we basically call each other freaking out because it means we’re reaching people from not only the US, but around the world. When the makeup comes off and the curls get washed out, Alissa and I go back to being ourselves–she plays softball, and I sing in my shower pretending to be Elle from Legally Blonde, an were proud of that side of us too. We’re boy crazy; were gossipers; were naive; were teenage girls. This is not the ONLY thing that we care about, and the last thing we want is for people to think we’re flipping our hair and acting as if this is nothing, because it’s EVERYTHING. Best of luck to every single person in this competition, and to all of our friends, words cannot express how much we love you. Thank you for this opportunity. <3
