Early life

Lennon & Maisy grew up on a secluded farm in Claremont, Ontario. Born into a musical family, with both parents and other family members in the music business, the girls became interested in the business from a very early age. Lennon got her first guitar when she was five and was taught by her father, an experienced guitarist. Although neither of them has ever received lessons or professional vocal or instrumental training, they both play numerous instruments and sing in two-part harmony. Having both turned to music for entertainment, the girls wrote songs together in their early years and played at various shows and festivals alongside their parents The Stellas. The family moved to Nashville from Canada in 2009 so Brad and MaryLynne could further their music career. The family is currently residing in Brentwood, Tennessee.
Career

Although music was the girls' early passion, Maisy had always been interested in acting and had been featured in several commercials and music videos when she was younger. So, when their mom became aware of a role in a new ABC show that was being filmed in Nashville, Maisy immediately auditioned. At the final stages of the auditioning process, the casting agents discovered Maisy's older sister Lennon and decided that both girls would be cast on the show. Lennon & Maisy began starring in the ABC drama Nashville in October 2012. However, prior to appearing on Nashville, the girls had to try to increase publicity so they could apply for their work visas. In order to achieve this, they uploaded a cover of Robyn’s “Call Your Girlfriend,” which went viral overnight. After this video was posted, they were invited to New York City to perform their cover on Good Morning America. From that moment, their careers took off. Their YouTube channel now has over 94 million views and nearly 753,000 subscribers.

Lennon & Maisy performed The Lumineers' "Ho Hey" on season one of Nashville. Their version reached the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart in April 2013. Later that year, Lennon & Maisy were invited to open for and present Taylor Swift with the Pinnacle Award at the CMA Awards.

Early in 2014, they recorded the song "Love" for a Coop (Switzerland) Naturaplan TV commercial. The song rose to number 1 on the Swiss iTunes chart and was the number 2 most downloaded song in Switzerland for three consecutive weeks.
The girls performed at the St. Jude Country Music Marathon & Half Marathon Post Race Concert with Charles Esten on April 26, 2014, and they have performed at the Grand Ole Opry more than a dozen times. They released an EP called Live YouTube Sessions in August 2012. Also in 2012, they put out a Christmas single called "Christmas Coming Home". In 2014, they released a cover of "That's What's Up", a song originally by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. The sisters have been featured on numerous soundtrack albums for Nashville.
Lennon & Maisy have been featured in O, The Oprah Magazine, Glamour, People, The Globe and Mail, The Huffington Post and numerous other publications.
Michael Kors invited them to his show at New York Fashion Week. They weren't able to attend, so they recorded a video for him of them playing Corey Hart’s “Sunglasses at Night.” The duo released a cover of the Coldplay song Up & Up in January 2017 along with a video.
