Charlottetown teenage twins thrilled with experience on U.S. reality show
David Rashed listens to feedback from the judges with his two daughters, Lily, centre, and Ava following their performance on the U.S. reality show “America’s Most Musical Family’’ on Dec. 13. It was the second week in a row the twins appeared on the program but they were eliminated in the broadcast. - Screenshot
CHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I. — Charlottetown twins Ava and Lily Rashed vow to work harder than before following two weeks of international television exposure.
The 16-year-old daughters of David and Sue Rashed were eliminated Friday night from the competition on Nickelodeon’s “America’s Most Musical Family’’, which aired on YTV in Canada.
The competition was filmed back in August in Los Angeles, Calif., but the girls were sworn to secrecy on how they fared. They were one of 30 family acts chasing the grand prize of a recording contract and $250,000 in cash.
“The overall experience was extremely positive and Lily and I were just so grateful to even be a part of the show at all,’’ Ava said.
“We’re just going to keep doing what we’re doing and writing songs and keep working really hard on our music. Hopefully, something comes out of this.’’
Last spring, the Rashed twins did a show at the Delta hotel in Charlottetown. They uploaded a 60-second snippet of their performance to their Instagram account which impressed a casting director with the Nickelodeon show. From there, the ball started rolling.
Lily said they worked day and night honing their skills so they could deliver the best possible performance on the show.
“We worked so hard just to get to the semifinals,’’ Lily said, referring to this past Friday’s show where they performed “Ex’s and Oh’s’’ by Elle King.
“It was just an amazing experience.’’
“We worked on the same songs, getting them prepared for L.A. and by the time we did perform them we knew them inside and out and we just went and had fun with it,’’ Ava added.
Ava said their adrenaline was on overdrive as they performed thanks to the energy from the audience.
“Just being in that atmosphere made us 10 times more excited. It’s like, ‘OK, this is the performance, this is what is going to be on the line’. We didn’t hold back at all and just gave it 100 per cent,’’ Ava said.
As an added bonus, their father, David, joined them on stage backing them on the bass guitar.
“I think I might have seen the bigger picture more than them because I might have been more nervous than them, honestly,’’ David said.
“You’re on a national stage — it’s the U.S., it’s Canada, it’s the world. I just wanted to do my part.’’
Even though they don’t have to keep things a secret anymore, there’s no use asking them who eventually comes out on top. Even they don’t know, but they’ll be watching.
Obviously, Ava and Lily would have liked to have gone further but they say they wouldn’t trade the experience.
“I think it’s made us, overall, more confident,’’ Lily said.
“Just being in the Los Angeles atmosphere really made us love music even more than we did.’’

Ava and Lily Rashed’s next P.E.I. show will be at The Guild in Charlottetown on Saturday, Jan. 4 with Michelle Bouey and Aaron Hastelow. Show begins at 7:30 p.m.
