Anastasiya and Maria Andreyevna Tolmachevy (Анастасия и Мария Андреевна Толмачёвы, born 14 January 1997) are twin singers, actresses, and former child singers from the Russian city of Kursk. Aged nine, they won the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2006 in Bucharest, Romania, with their song Vesenniy Jazz (Literal: Spring Jazz, Cyrillic: Весенний Джаз). Eight years later, they represented Russia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2014, placing seventh with the song "Shine".

The twins released an album called Polovinki in 2007, and have appeared in a made-for-TV movie in Russia.

Maria Andreyevna (Masha) and Anastasiya Andreyevna (Nastya) Tolmachevy were born on January 14, 1997 in Kursk, Russia. They are the eldest of three children and they have one younger sister. Their first mentor in singing was their mother who is a music teacher.

At the age of nine, the sisters represented Russia at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2006 in Bucharest, Romania after being selected from 20 acts in the national final held on June 4, 2006. They later won the Junior Eurovision by a clear margin with their song Vesenniy Jazz (Literal: Spring Jazz, Cyrillic: Весенний Джаз) which earned them 154 points, with Belarus coming in at second place with 129 points.

In 2007, the sisters released their first album, Polovinki, then appeared in the movie Kingdom of Crooked Mirrors later that year.
