Elyse & Larena – MOTHERMARY Model Twins

We're STOKED to present Elyse and Larena on the show. They are gorgeous twins who model and sing. Here's the best part, they're Pete A Turner's cousins. Pete, Elyse and Larena hail from a line of entertainers. To see and hear more of their work, check out @MotherMaryMusic on Instagram. This is Elyse and Danielle's first visit to the Break It Down Show with Pete A Turner.

More on the twins - Their musical genesis beginning in NYC, the now LA based duo, MOTHERMARY makes retro-futuristic-electro-art-pop steeped in sacrilege.

Named after the mother of Christ, the ultimate symbol of religious hypocrisy and the impossible expectations placed on women, the bicoastal project is the brainchild of identical twins Elyse & Larena, who grew up in a Mormon family in Missoula, Montana, the youngest of nearly a dozen children. “It was our world… our paradigm,” Larena says about those days. “We were brainwashed.”

MOTHERMARY served their mesmerizing debut, I Am Your God, via Italians Do It Better. A Sin Wave work of Art Pop that’s utterly singular, a dazzling hybrid of the old and the new. Featured in Pitchfork, The Fader, Gorilla Vs. Bear, Mojo and Record Collector to name a few they have been described as "A glorious celebration of blasphemy" and "A debut offering that's by turns thrilling, creepy, and unabashedly sexy."

“I Am Your God isn’t about a god complex, though we do enjoy power play, rather it’s an invitation to ponder what you worship and why. It’s about women reclaiming their holiness and inviting you to acknowledge your own. It’s about who we choose for our modern Gods as we let go of the bearded white men of the past."
