Do you make music for yourself or for others?

Suhanna: We make music to express ourselves.

What’s next for the ‘Hills Twins’?

Joshna: We are still in a learning phase  and don’t know where life will take us. But, we do believe that we will make it big in the music industry one day!

What sets you apart from each other?

Suhanna: As singers what sets us apart is that Joshna is good at hitting higher notes and loves playing the guitar .

Joshna: Suhanna has the best lower register and is one of the best piano players I’ve ever known.

Something we don’t know about you two?

Suhanna: Well, not many people know that my favourite song is ‘Thriller’ by Michael Jackson. Also, I am obssessed with stars and all kinds of lights in the night sky.

Joshna:  I love cats! I am heavily influenced by Janis Joplin. I would like people to know that I believe that love is what makes the world go round.
