History



1995–2002: Background and early work

Tegan and Sara began playing guitar and writing songs at age 15,[6] using an old guitar they found in their basement owned by their then-stepfather, Bruce. One of the first songs they wrote was "Tegan Didn't Go To School Today", originally written by Sara. They later sang and recorded the song together on a cassette tape. They first called their band Plunk, defined as "light punk" as they had neither a drummer nor bassist at the time. In 1997, they used their school's recording studio to record two demo albums: Who's in Your Band? and Play Day. In 1998, they won Calgary's "Garage Warz" competition; using the studio time they won in this competition, they recorded their first professional demo under the name "Sara and Tegan" called Yellow tape.[12][13] This was followed by Orange tape and Red tape. In May 1998, they opened for Hayden, in Calgary, marking their first major show.[14]

In 1999, they released their debut album Under Feet Like Ours as "Sara and Tegan", with producer Jared Kuemper.[15] Two songs from Red tape appeared on the album, and two from Orange tape. They later changed their name to Tegan and Sara because people misheard it as "Sara Antegan". They signed with Neil Young's Vapor Records and released This Business of Art through the label in 2000.


2002–2011: Mainstream success


In 2002, Tegan and Sara released their third album If It Was You. Their fourth album, So Jealous, was released in 2004 and led to wider success and attention, both locally and internationally. This album was released through both Vapor and Sanctuary. The band's 2007 album, The Con, was released by Vapor and Sire because Sanctuary chose to no longer release new music in the United States. The album was co-produced by Chris Walla. Jason McGerr of Death Cab for Cutie, Matt Sharp of The Rentals (and previously Weezer), Hunter Burgan of AFI, and Kaki King all appeared and collaborated on the album.[16]

On October 26, 2009, Tegan and Sara released their sixth album, Sainthood, which was produced by Chris Walla and Howard Redekopp. The duo also put out a three-volume book set titled ON, IN, AT that included stories, essays, journals, and photos of the band on tour in America in late 2008, writing together in New Orleans, and touring Australia. The photographs in the book were taken by Lindsey Byrnes and Ryan Russell. Sainthood debuted on the Billboard 200 chart at number 21 selling 24,000 copies in its first week.[17] While recording the album, Tegan and Sara spent a week writing songs together in New Orleans. The song "Paperback Head" was the only song written by the pair to appear on the album, making it the first song on any Tegan and Sara album that they wrote together.[18] Spin gave Sainthood four out of five stars and wrote, "Tegan and Sara's music may no longer be the stuff of teens, but its strength remains in how much it feels like two people talking."[19]

In 2011, they launched "2011: A Merch Odyssey", which saw at least one new item in the official online stores every month, all year long. A live CD/DVD combination package titled Get Along was released on November 15 and contains three films titled "States", "India", and "For the Most Part". It was nominated in the 2013 Grammy Awards for Best Long Form Music Video.[20]


2012–2018: Heartthrob, Love You to Death, and The Con X: Covers


Tegan and Sara started recording their seventh studio album, Heartthrob, on February 20, 2012. Eight songs were produced by Greg Kurstin. Joey Waronker contributed drums to these songs. Two songs were produced by Mike Elizondo, with Victor Indrizzo contributing drums, Josh Lopez contributing guitar, and Dave Palmer contributing piano. The last two songs were produced by Justin Meldal-Johnsen. The first single "Closer" was released on September 25, 2012. The album was released on January 29, 2013 and debuted on the Billboard top 200 at number 3, the band's highest charting record to date, selling 49,000 copies in its first week.[21] Heartthrob debuted at number 2 on the Canadian chart, digital downloads chart and hit number 1 on the rock and alternative album charts.[22] In July 2013, the album was shortlisted for the 2013 Polaris Music Prize.[23] In March 2014, Tegan and Sara won three Juno Awards for Single of the Year, Pop Album of the Year, and Group of the Year.

Tegan and Sara finished their eighth studio album on November 30, 2015. On March 10, 2016, the band announced via their Facebook account that the album's title would be Love You to Death, with the release date set for June 3. They released the album's lead single "Boyfriend" on April 8. On April 25, tour dates were announced for their 2016 global tour in support of the album. The duo released a music video for each track on the album. For the tenth anniversary of the release of their album The Con, Tegan and Sara collaborated with 17 artists including Cyndi Lauper to create The Con X: Covers in 2017. The participating artists created covers of The Con's original songs that benefitted the Tegan and Sara Foundation. Tegan and Sara also toured an acoustic version of The Con in 2017 with a portion of the proceeds supporting the Tegan and Sara Foundation.[24]


2019–2020: Hey, I'm Just Like You and memoir


In May 2018 at Out Web Fest, Tegan stated they were working on a book, podcast, and new record.[25] Their memoir High School was released on September 24, 2019 by MCD Books, a division of Farrar, Straus and Giroux, alongside Simon & Schuster Canada and Virago Press in the United Kingdom.[26][27] The memoir details their teenage years, growing up in Canada and "worshipping" Nirvana, Green Day and the Smashing Pumpkins.[28] The book also details the twins' exploration of their sexuality. While researching the book, Tegan and Sara found cassettes of some of their earliest songs.[28]

In early 2019, Tegan and Sara announced they were working on their next record for release later that year.[29] On July 9, 2019, they announced via Instagram that their ninth album would be called Hey, I'm Just Like You, and would consist of 12 re-recorded songs they initially wrote as teenagers. It was released on September 27, 2019,[30] three days after the release of their memoir.

In April 2020, the duo created a live "show" that they named Where Does the Good Grow, to entertain their fans during the COVID-19 pandemic. On May 12, 2020, they announced that they were releasing merchandise designed by EE Storey for Where Does the Good Grow. The show was held every Thursday at 3 p.m. PST on their Instagram account, until the series finale on July 23, 2020.[31]

In 2021 it was announced that a TV show named High School based on their memoir of the same name would be filmed in Calgary with Clea DuVall as the director.[32] Two twins, Railey and Seazynn Gilliland, were cast as the main characters. The show was filmed from April to June 2022 and was released on Amazon Freevee in fall 2022.[33]


2021–present: Still Jealous, New record label, and Crybaby


In July 2021, Tegan and Sara announced on their social media a return to the studio to work on their 10th studio album.[34] On February 1, 2022, they announced Still Jealous, a completely acoustic reimagining of So Jealous, which was released on February 11, 2022.[35]

In April 2022 the duo announced they had left Warner Bros. records and signed a new record deal with Mom & Pop.[36] They also released the first single "Fucking Up What Matters" from their upcoming tenth studio album on April 28, 2022. [37] On July 12, 2022, the duo announced the album is called Crybaby and would be released on October 21, 2022. The second single, "Yellow", was released on the same day, with the music video being released on YouTube.[38] The twins also announced their first tour in three years, which starts in Philadelphia, PA on October 26, 2022 and ends in Vancouver on November 20.[39]


Influences


Tegan and Sara have credited Green Day, Nirvana, and Hole for "truly start[ing] to cement our desire to write and make our own music".[40] During their teenage years, the duo were influenced by Hayden,[14] the Smashing Pumpkins, Violent Femmes, Dinosaur Jr., and Teenage Fanclub.[41] Other artists who have influenced Tegan and Sara include Depeche Mode,[42][43] Rihanna,[44][45] Taylor Swift,[46] Madonna, Kate Bush, David Bowie, Mike Elizondo,[47] Pink, Lily Allen,[48] Erasure, Ace of Base,[49] Tom Petty, Britney Spears, Katy Perry,[50] Ani DiFranco, the New Pornographers, Cyndi Lauper, Sinéad O'Connor, Against Me!, and Bruce Springsteen.[40]


Personal lives


Both twins are openly gay, and each is married.[51][52][2] In August 2022, Sara welcomed her first child.[53]

At the age of 19, both Quins moved from their hometown of Calgary to Vancouver. In 2003, Sara moved to Montreal. [54] For many years, Tegan lived in both Vancouver, B.C. and Los Angeles while Sara lived in Montreal and New York City.

As of 2019,[55] both Tegan and Sara had moved back to live in Vancouver, BC.[56]

Tegan and Sara are active politically and socially engaged. They are both advocates for LGBTQ equality as well as in music education, literacy, and cancer research.[57]

The sisters are cousins with musician Jen Twynn Payne, drummer and lead vocalist for the Vancouver-based band The Courtneys.[54]


Activism and involvement in the LGBT community


In December 2016, and in the wake of the United States' presidential election, the sisters founded the Tegan and Sara Foundation, to advocate for "economic justice, health and representation for LGBTQ girls and women".[2] They have since partnered with Kiehl's to release Ultra Facial cleansers with limited edition packaging in order to raise funds for the foundation.[58] Profits from The Con X: Covers and a portion of ticket prices from The Con's 10th anniversary tour went to the Tegan and Sara Foundation. At the end of The Con 10th anniversary tour in 2017, they stated they plan to take two years off from touring to focus on the Tegan and Sara Foundation and to make a new record.[59]

In 2013, the band partnered with Coolhaus, their "favourite ice cream sandwich truck",[60] to create an ice cream sandwich in favour of same-sex marriage. The sandwich featured "double chocolate" cookies and salted caramel ice cream and was named, "Til Death Do Us Part".[60][61]

In 2012, they appeared on the cover of Under the Radar magazine's "Protest" issue. Both were photographed holding a sign that read: "The rights of the minority should never be subject to the whim of the majority."[62] Also in Canada, they were actively supporting Quebec students in their protest against that provincial government. In the U.S., both were vocal during California's Prop 8 debates.[63] On November 10, 2016, rather than boycotting North Carolina for HB2, Tegan and Sara performed at The Orange Peel and donated their proceeds to Equality North Carolina in order to fight the legislation.[64] This inspired the band Matt and Kim to match their donation in the form of merchandise proceeds.[65]

Due to the expansion of their audience they have gained a higher profile in the LGBTQ community. They were awarded Outstanding Music Artist at the GLAAD Media Awards, beating out high-profile musicians including Lady Gaga and Elton John.[66] In June 2014, Tegan and Sara joined WorldPride to perform in the closing ceremonies at Yonge–Dundas Square in downtown Toronto.[67]

The duo partnered with Revel & Riot to create a T-shirt that would fund Revel & Riot's mission for LGBTQ rights. The "Animals" T-shirt features Tegan and Sara, a turtle, fox, koala, penguin, and a dragonfly all labeled with their Latin names. The text at the bottom reads "Gay behaviour is found in over 1500 species. LGBTQ equality now." All proceeds of the sale go to benefit the work of Revel & Riot.[68]

It means a great deal to us that after nine albums you're all still with us, and it's a big part of why we're still passionately writing, recording, and performing music professionally! We've been writing non stop and can't wait for you to hear what we're up to. New music soon. Please standby."".
