  • Tegan and Sara to Receive National Arts Centre Award During 2018 Governor General’S Performing Arts Awards Celebrations
    News Release TEGAN AND SARA TO RECEIVE NATIONAL ARTS CENTRE AWARD DURING 2018 GOVERNOR GENERAL’S PERFORMING ARTS AWARDS CELEBRATIONS March 8, 2018 – OTTAWA (Canada) – The National Arts Centre is delighted to announce it will present the 2018 National Arts Centre Award to Tegan and Sara . The acclaimed musicians, songwriters and activists will be honoured at the 26 th annual Governor General’s Performing Arts Awards show on June 2, 2018. This prestigious award is presented annually in recognition of exceptional work by a performing artist or artists in the previous performance year. Twin sisters Tegan and Sara were born in Calgary, Alberta, and are now based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Their career numbers are impressive: more than one million albums sold, seven Gold certifications, one Double Platinum certification, three Juno Awards, two Polaris Prize nominations, and a Grammy nomination. But even more impressive is the conviction that has driven Tegan and Sara’s continuous evolution as artists. Transitioning from acoustic roots to indie rock stars in the mid-2000s with their widely acclaimed albums So Jealous (2004) and The Con (2007), Tegan and Sara began the path of reinvention that continues to inform their creative identity today. Rolling Stone magazine called their 2016 album Love You to Death “their most sophisticated album yet.” Last fall Tegan and Sara released The Con X: Covers, featuring 14 of their favourite artists covering all 14 songs from their 2007 album The Con, in honour of its 10 th anniversary. Album proceeds are being donated to The Tegan and Sara Foundation, which fights for health, economic justice and representation for LGBTQ girls and women, and raises awareness and funds to address the inequalities currently preventing LGBTQ girls and women from reaching their full potential.

  • Career Biography
    Career Biography Tegan and Sara’s 13-year career has seen them build an avid global following of fans and fellow musicians alike. Their unique ability to bridge the pop and indie worlds has allowed their music to cross all traditional boundaries of genre, from being covered by The White Stripes to collaborating with superstar DJs such as Tiesto and David Guetta. Having sold nearly 1 million career albums and toured with acts from The Killers to Neil Young, Tegan and Sara have now released their 7th studio album – Heartthrob – as internationally-celebrated songwriters, performers, and artists. Tegan Quin and Sara Quin were born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 1980 and began playing guitar and writing songs at age 15. Following the release of their first independent full-length album in 1999, Under Feet Like Ours, they caught the attention of Neil Young’s iconic manager, Elliot Roberts, who quickly signed them to his Los Angeles-based label, Vapor Records. Tegan and Sara’s first international release on Vapor, This Business Of Art, was followed by extensive worldwide touring, including opening slots with Neil Young himself and a first appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman. In 2002, the band released If It Was You, a foundational moment in Tegan and Sara’s creative path and musical identity. Its fresh sonic template and critical success in the US set up their fourth studio album, So Jealous, which ultimately provided their global breakthrough. On the heels of 6 separate song placements on Grey’s Anatomy, a US radio hit in “Walking With A Ghost”, and a North American tour opening for The Killers, So Jealous cemented Tegan and Sara’s status as one of Canada’s pre-eminent songwriting forces and musical exports.

This paper argues that Tegan and Sara's music videos do in fact contain elements that reflect their sexuality, and examines the extent to which these videos demonstrate their public identity. In order to understand the composition of music videos and the nonverbal signs related to gender and sexuality within them, I draw upon theories of performed identity, music video genres, settings, and lyrical analysis.
