Carlijn (born 1996) and Merle (born 1995) are two Dutch girls, who like to make music and music videos. They met at their local dance school where they had theater classes together. First they weren't friends, but later, they found out that they both like to sing. So, they met each other a few times and became good friends. Carlijn & Merle started taking singing lessons together, with sometimes a little live performance. In 2009 they decided to write a song for the Dutch TV program Avro Junior Songfestival and they became one of the 10 finalists with the song 'Verboden Toegang' (6th). Since then they make videos and post them on Youtube. They have over 10.000 subscribers and 1.75 million views. That isn't possible without Danny, he is amazing with the guitar, piano and bass. Kjelt is also an important musician for their covers (normally he plays the bass). Carlijn & Merle practice once a week with their band called Wanted (with Tom, Elian, Kjelt, Luuk). Carlijns father has a studio, called 'Studio de Bovenkamer' where they record their songs.
