Kevin & Karla (Brother-Sister Duo)

It's Tuesday, which means one thing for us lovers of the Three Tune Tuesday initiative by Ablaze. Music!

As Plato puts it:

Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything.

Ain't that a beautiful description!

Anyhow, it's time to share my three from the Vasquez siblings, Kevin and Karla. My memory fails me as to when and how I discovered this duo, but I loved them at first play.

They are a popular pop band from Chile. They started their careers performing covers of different songs in Spanish versions. They released their cover of Hit the Lights, captivating audiences, including famous artists like Selena Gomez, One Direction, and Taylor Swift, among others. Before this, they were part of a TV program called Stars of the Future.

Okay, let's play their songs already. Here's tune one, with their fun performance of the Spanish version of Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga's original song:

Kevin & Karla - Die with A Smile

Uploaded on their YouTube channel six months ago, the music video has garnered 10 million views. I just love their chemistry. At first, I thought they were husband and wife, only to learn they are siblings :) Their unique vocals complement each other. It must be nice to be working with one's brother/sister.

And here's tune two, their original composition, Flores (Flowers) from their 2015 album:

Kevin & Karla - Flores

I love the rhythm, the duo's voices matched well, and their portrayal of their characters in the music video. I wondered why the song sounded familiar and realized Miley Cyrus sang the English version Flowers in her style and twist in 2023. Here's part of the lyrics I like the most:

And here's the third tune, their awesome rendition of Ed Sheeran's song:

Kevin & Karla - Perfect

This is one of their most popular covers, with over 226 million views since it was uploaded 7 years ago. Quite a versatile duo, covering various songs in different pop genres, even K-pop.

Cheers and happy Tuesday!
