Workman wanted to take their stripped down teenage angst-filled folk and rev it up a bit. The girls began to record their new album with producer and musician Hawksley Workman.

In 1999, the girls released a low-budget recording titled Under Feet Like Ours.Īttention from Under Feet Like Ours soon landed the twins on Neil Young's label Vapor Records. When they were seventeen, someone anonymously entered the twins into a battle of the bands, which jump-started their career as a live group.

From ages eight to fifteen, the girls played piano, but they turned to acoustic guitars, on which they began to write their own songs. The blurred identity of their voice and guitar playing is what makes Tegan and Sara work as a classic style duo, updated for a new generation.īorn in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, on September 18, 1980, playing music was an every day occurrence for Tegan and Sara. On their albums, the twins interchange vocals and guitars in a truly complementary manner. "Smart songwriters about love, the gay Canadian-born twin Quin sisters write poems filled with self-doubt that mirror reality, deliver them with delicious close vocal harmony and back them up with an addictive, breezy pop soundscape," wrote Billboard of the duo. In just a few years, twin sisters Tegan and Sara Quin released a handful of records, evolved their sound from stripped down to revved up folk-punk and toured with artists from Ryan Adams to Neil Young.
