History

1997–2003: Backgrounds and early work

Tegan and Sara began playing guitar and writing songs at age 15,[6] forming a band called Plunk without a drummer or bass player. 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 to record their first professional demo, Yellow tape, which was followed by Orange tape and Red tape.

In 1999, they released their debut album Under Feet Like Ours independently under the name "Sara and Tegan" with producer Jared Kuemper.[9] 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 thought they were a solo act named "Sara Antegan." The new name was more memorable and their first album was later reprinted under the name Tegan and Sara. In 1999 they signed with Neil Young's Vapor Records and released This Business of Art through the label in 2000. They have toured extensively since then. In 2002, the band 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. One track of the album, "Walking with a Ghost",[10] was covered by The White Stripes, who released it on their Walking with a Ghost EP.[11]

2007–2011: Mainstream success

Their 2007 album, The Con, was released by Vapor and Sire because Sanctuary chose 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.[12]

On October 27, 2009, Tegan and Sara released their sixth album Sainthood, produced by Chris Walla and Howard Redekopp. The duo also put out a three-volume book set titled ON, IN, AT, which is a collection of stories, essays, journals, and photos of the band on tour in America in the fall of 2008, writing together in New Orleans, and touring Australia. The photographs in the book are taken by Lindsey Byrnes and Ryan Russell. The album "Sainthood" debuted on the Billboard top 200 albums at number 21 selling 24,000 copies in its first week.[13] While recording Sainthood, 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.[14] Spin magazine 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."[15]

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". Get Along was nominated in the 2013 Grammy Awards for "Best Long Form Music Video".[16]

2012–2014: Heartthrob

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.[17] Heartthrob debuted at number 2 on the Canadian chart, digital downloads chart and hit number 1 on the rock and alternative album charts.[18] In July 2013, the album was shortlisted for the 2013 Polaris Music Prize.[19] In March 2014 Tegan and Sara won three Juno Awards for Song of the Year, Pop Album of the Year and Group of the Year.

2015–present: Love You to Death

Tegan and Sara finished their eighth studio album on November 30, 2015.[20] 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 lead single from the album, "Boyfriend", on April 8.[21][22] On April 25 tour dates were announced for their 2016 worldwide tour in support of the Love You To Death album.[23] The duo stated that they would be releasing a music video for each track on the album.[24]

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."[25] During their teenage years, the duo were influenced by The Smashing Pumpkins, Violent Femmes, Dinosaur Jr. and Teenage Fanclub.[26] Other artists who have influenced Tegan and Sara include Rihanna,[27][28] Taylor Swift,[29] Madonna, Kate Bush, David Bowie, Mike Elizondo,[30] Pink, Lily Allen,[31] Erasure, Ace of Base,[32] Tom Petty, Britney Spears, Katy Perry,[33] Ani DiFranco, The New Pornographers, Cyndi Lauper, Sinéad O'Connor, Against Me! and Bruce Springsteen.[25]

Personal lives

Tegan and Sara are identical twins born September 19, 1980, in Calgary. Both are openly gay[34][35] and live and travel between Vancouver and Los Angeles.[36] In 2013, the band partnered with Coolhaus, their "favourite ice cream sandwich truck",[37] to create an ice cream sandwich in favour of marriage equality. The sandwich featured Double Chocolate cookies and Salted Caramel ice cream, and was named "Til Death Do Us Part".[37][38]

Tegan and Sara are active politically and socially engaged. They are both advocates for LGBTQ equality as well as music education, literacy, and cancer research.[39]

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."[40] Also in Canada, they were actively supporting Quebec students in their protest against that provincial government. They spoke out on behalf of Against Me!'s transgender punk rocker Laura Jane Grace. In the U.S. both were vocal during California's Prop 8 debates.[41] 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.[42] This inspired the band Matt & Kim to match their donation in the form of merchandise proceeds.[43]

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.[44] They have created a visible LGBTQ presence in the music scene. On June 2014, Tegan and Sara joined WorldPride to perform in the closing ceremonies at Yonge-Dundas Square in downtown Toronto.[45]

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.[46]

In December 2016, and in the wake of the United States' presidential election, they founded the Tegan and Sara Foundation, to fight for "economic justice, health and representation for LGBTQ girls and women."[35] They have since partnered with Kiehl's cosmetics to release Ultra Facial cleansers with limited edition packaging in order to raise funds for the foundation.[47] They plan to take a hiatus from touring and not make any new music for a while, but do have plans to celebrate Sainthood in 2019.[48]
