Update on 3\/29\/21: <\/strong>Liahona sang “Me Too” by Meghan Trainor. She made it to the Top 24! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update 3\/21\/21: <\/strong> On Hollywood Week Liahona played the piano and sang an upbeat song that definitely caught the attention of the judges! Ammon also performed but unfortunately he wasn’t moved ahead to the Hollywood Week Duets. Liahona was chosen to move on and was visibly upset when her brother couldn’t join her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) Liahona and Ammon began writing songs<\/a> when they were 12 and 13 years old. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) They were inspired by their family’s big move to Hawaii. With no electronic connections, they wrote songs instead. Their creativity took off from there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) They have 7 little brothers and sisters. Their family is Polynesian. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) Liahona began posting covers to songs on Instagram. One example is Madison Beer’s song “Selfish.” Ammon has done the same. He’s covered popular songs like “When I Was Your Man” by Bruno Mars. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
