Liana Caruana (aka Miz Tipzta): garage band
I’ve come across a DNA match between my sister and a Liana Caruana. After some research I discovered that my Liana Caruana appeared to match another Liana Caruana, a member of the English garage band “3 Of A Kind”. They’re best known for their 2004 hit single “Babycakes”. The song went to number one on the UK charts. Liana wrote the lyrics, sings, and stars in the official music video (left). Currently the video has more than 10 million views on YouTube! I also discovered that Ed Sheeran sings the song in his acoustic mashup of songs for “KISSTORY Covers” (left, bottom). We have yet another musician in the family!
My connection would be from my paternal side of the family, likely the Scottish side. Some additional research is needed to figure out our shared DNA.
Liana and I have connected, and she has confirmed that she’s the same Liana “I was once a pop star in Britain lol my song went to Number one in the UK charts”. I’ve shared with Liana the information I’ve managed to collect so far on her family.
