HelenaMaria is an American indie pop-rock group from New Jersey composed of identical twins Helena and Maria Mehalis. ==Biography== Born in New Brunswick, New Jersey, Helena and Maria grew up in a self described "free-spirited" environment promoting artistic expression. Since the age of 4 they took classical piano lessons and sang in their church choir. Also at the age of 4 they landed their first national commercial, later becoming members of the Screen Actors Guild. They were home-schooled until 7th grade. In their sophomore year in high school they learned to play the guitar, and songwriting soon followed. They later began performing at venues as much as possible all over New Jersey, New York City, and Pennsylvania. Helena and Maria are identical twins, however Helena is right-handed and plays guitar fretting on the left hand and strumming on the right, while Maria is left-handed and plays it the opposite. Helena and Maria write songs to reflect their life experiences. Maria explains: “Life experiences inspire me, but it’s also observations of what others are going through, which could be completely irrelevant to my life, that somehow affect me, as well as my sister.” Musically their skills on the piano and guitar are nearly identical, but they maintain that their songwriting style and vocals are slightly different.〔(Official Homepage Bio )〕〔(Official Mypsace )〕 In 2006, Helena and Maria recorded their first album, "Serene", consisting of all original material.
