Lennon & Maisy are a Canadian music duo composed of sisters Lennon Ray Louise Stella (born August 13, 1999) and Maisy Jude Marion Stella (born December 13, 2003) best known for their roles as Maddie and Daphne Conrad (Lennon's character was and/or is currently addressed as "Maddie Claybourne" and "Maddie Jaymes" in later seasons of the show) in the CMT musical drama series Nashville. They were born in Oshawa, Ontario but now reside in Nashville, Tennessee. Lennon & Maisy are the daughters of MaryLynne and Brad Stella, who perform together as The Stellas.
Lennon & Maisy grew up on a secluded farm in Claremont, Ontario. Born into a musical family, with both parents and other family members in the music business, the girls became interested in the business from a very early age. Lennon got her first guitar when she was five and was taught by her father, an experienced guitarist. Although neither of them has ever received lessons or professional vocal or instrumental training, they both play numerous instruments and sing in two-part harmony. Having both turned to music for entertainment, the girls wrote songs together in their early years and played at various shows and festivals alongside their parents The Stellas. The family moved to Nashville from Canada in 2009 so Brad and MaryLynne could further their music career. The family is currently residing in Brentwood, Tennessee.
Although music was the girls' early passion, Maisy had always been interested in acting and had been featured in several commercials and music videos when she was younger. So, when their mom became aware of a role in a new ABC show that was being filmed in Nashville, Maisy immediately auditioned. At the final stages of the auditioning process, the casting agents discovered Maisy's older sister Lennon and decided that both girls would be cast on the show. Lennon & Maisy began starring in the ABC drama Nashville in October 2012. However, prior to appearing on Nashville, the girls had to try to increase publicity so they could apply for their work visas. In order to achieve this, they uploaded a cover of Robyn’s “Call Your Girlfriend,” which went viral overnight. After this video was posted, they were invited to New York City to perform their cover on Good Morning America. From that moment, their careers took off. Their YouTube channel now has over 97 million views and nearly 762,000 subscribers.
