Besides singing, Shanice plays the guitar and Sherize the keyboard. They have participated in various school, college and intercollege singing competitions and have walked away with the first prize in several of them. They performed at the Grape Escapade in Goa and for several occasions too. Sylvia is a member of the ‘Voices in Harmony’ choir. The Monteiros sing songs from different genres and in different languages: English, Konkani and Portuguese. They prefer to sing songs that they can sing in harmony.
