Canadian pop-rock icons Tegan and Sara have
announced that they will hit the road with The Black Keys for the extension of
their U.S. Tour later this year. Additionally, the girls are confirmed to play
Austin City Limits this October. The official ACL lineup was announced today
and can be seen in full on the festival's website.
Over the last couple months, Tegan & Sara have been hard
at work recording their new album. The Quin sisters have been in the studio
with Greg Kurstin (The Shins, Lily Allen, Sia), Mike Elizondo (Regina Spektor,
Mastodon, Rilo Kiley), and Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Neon Trees, M83, Moving
Units). They've offered up fans an inside look at the process of recording too
throughTegan and Sara's Carpool Confessional, a weekly video show filmed from
the back of their car and featuring a wide variety of special guests and
musical collaborators. Additionally, Rolling Stone rolled out weekly behind
the scenes photo updates from the studio, all captured by Lindsey Byrnes.
Tegan and Sara lend vocals to two tracks on Grammy-nominated
Morgan Page's new album In The Air, including the single,
"Body Work," which they also star in the video for. Having
remixed numerous cuts for the indie stalwarts, the three wanted to write
something together from scratch. "Body Work" is a stellar example of
Page's skills as a producer and as an artist: brilliantly balancing kinetic
house music with blissful pop.
