Tegan & Sara
Canadian sisters Tegan and Sara Quin started performing together in the
mid-90s, using their school's recording studio to create two demo
albums, 'Who's in Your Band?' and 'Play Day.' They gained wider
attention in 1998, winning the Garage Warz Battle of the Bands, a local
music competition in Calgary. Since then they have toured with such
acts as Neil Young, Rufus Wainwright, Kaki King, The Pretenders, Ben
Folds, The Killers, Gogol Bordello, Hot Hot Heat, Ryan Adams and
Weezer, also appearing at Sarah McLachlan's Lilith Fair. The duo are
touring behind their fifth album, 'The Con,' which was co-produced by
Chris Walla of Death Cab for Cutie.
