-TEGAN AND SARA-

PROMO VIDEO (x)

Song: COME ON

Tegan: Sara. Sara had the beginning of the name Sara and Tegan, not because she’s number one, that’s for sure. She blew it, though, so now it’s Tegan and Sara, so that’s why we changed our name.

Sara: Tegan. Born September 19, 1980. Born Tegan RAIN Quin. A little bit more introverted than me, writes a little bit weirder songs…

Tegan: Sara’s uhh definitely a full contact kind of sport person and I’m definitely in the background ready to kick your knee out when you’re not looking so that’s a pretty good synopsis of Sara and Tegan.

Song: HYPE

Tegan: We both wrote together a lot of time- Well no we didn’t. We had ideas and then we would write together but we’ve definitely become more ummm…

Sara: We had a little prob- We had problems.

Tegan: Yea, but we write separately and then we bring it together. We’re kind of umm… we’re kind of independent players now, but we do collaborate at- in the end kind of thing. But we used to just fight, and then the songs were crappy. Now they’re not crappy anymore.

Sara: …cause we don’t write together. It’s not like any other band… like we don’t practice once or twice a week. I mean, we practice every day for like, a long time.

Tegan: Right-

Sara: So we’d be better, but

Tegan: *mumbling* But four and a half years of playing at least once a day, you know, a lot, together and stuff so… I think we’ve got a lot accomplished in short time only because we’re together all the time playing and getting better

Sara: We don’t take up very much room either uhh… *mumbling*

Tegan: Like according- in what? *mumbling* like in your room?

Sara: No like generally in space… like we don’t take up a lot of space

Tegan: What does that have to do with- I want to do my interview over here away from her…

Songs: PROUD + CLEVER MEALS

Sara: We’re pretty much one of those- those nerdy people that sing about like love and sadness and depression and stuff

Tegan: Not- not me, I write about freedom and inspirational, powerful songs

Song: OUR TREES

Song: SUPERSTAR

Tegan and Sara bio from early 2000s

BIO FROM TEGANANDSARA.COM A VERY LONG TIME AGO... 

(written by Sara Quin in the early 2000s)


Bio's Are Hard To Write Because
 We Don't Want To Sound Geeky



We are Tegan and Sara. And we never thought we were geeky. Our mother has always said that nothing is geeky about us. But she didn't think she was geeky when she went through that really bad early nineties stage with permed hair and tiger make-up. Plus, she was never summed up as a "Twin Teen Folk Act" when she was really a pyrotechnic leopard-print-wearing eighties super mom. These are some of the things we think people should know about us. If we've left out your favourite T and S facts, maybe we didn't think they were interesting, or maybe we just thought they were geeky. Which does NOT mean YOU are geeky, and if you "relate" or have similar "facts" about yourself, our refusal to acknowledge things like (long hair worn with a centre part grade 7-12 and/or songs you may have downloaded through napster that we recorded six years ago that's lyrical content would closely resemble you with your diary from when you were 14) we apologise for their absence.



So here is a quick look at the last six years. We started playing guitar when we were 15, and we called ourselves PLUNK. We were kind of wussy punk (no drums or bass) and we were really bad. Tegan still try's to constantly remake old PLUNK songs with titles like "jonny" but I am trying to live in the NOW. We had really funny garage band parties until some guy broke our P.A. Our mom wouldn't fix it and so PLUNK became Tegan and Sara. We were a lot quieter and our mom liked us. We entered a contest and we won. We graduated high school and I worked at the zoo. We made two albums and we traveled a lot. We toured and played with Neil Young, Kinnie Starr, Melissa Ferrick, Jacob two-two, Pony, and Zoebliss (of course there are others, but this is a small page) We went to therapy, we moved to Vancouver, we became super fans of the band Sewing With Nancie, Tegan started jogging, I bought a basketball and we signed to Vapor records. Vapor Records has now since relocated to Tegan's apartment so they could be closer to her genius. Plus they say the rent is way cheaper then their offices in Santa Monica, and a lot "cozier" for seven people. Mike, our tour manager, left us stranded in tuktoyuktuk because of some weird allergy to polar bear meat, and now lives in Australia on a vegetarian cruise line that circles the coral reef. We could tell endless stories of touring that our friends and family beg to stop hearing in crowded restaurants but if I wrote them all here, what would Tegan and I talk about on stage?
