A guide to the music and multifaceted career of musical artists and songwriters Tegan and Sara.
Through
interviews with Tegan and Sara, their collaborators, journalists and
fans, this book explores the multifaceted career of one of music's most
celebrated sister duos, from their start as Neil Young's prot嶲廥 to
Canadian indie-rock purveyors and, almost 15 years into their career,
making their riskiest transformation yet, into mainstream pop breakouts.
Coming
up as grunge-loving musicians in the late '90s and early 2000s, Tegan
and Sara found themselves awkwardly pushed into categories that didn't
quite fit: a novelty twin sister folk act when they wanted to be taken
seriously; pop when they wanted to be indie rock; and sellouts when they
finally made their bid for mainstream success. As young, queer
musicians who didn't see anyone else like themselves growing up (in a
time where Internet access hadn't yet formed global spaces and
communities for LGBTQ+ people), Tegan and Sara's path to pop stardom was
filled with familiar hurdles, but no clear instructions on how to
navigate things like homophobic press, niche queer audiences that wanted
to claim them, or sexism at every turn.
It's a journey with ups
and downs, but Tegan and Sara's perseverance--alongside a music industry
and journalism world that's had to learn to confront its own biases --has
helped create a musical world today that more readily accepts and
embraces queer voices. Featuring continuous sonic transformations and
the occasionalfist fight, Tegan and Sara's story is essential to
Canadian music history.
