regrerfully, I did not begin listenrng to
tegan & Saf
kgan ana-Sara until the Fall of 2073.
Since then, I have been making a desperate atternpt to make up for lost time. Tegan
and Sara Quin have been making music for almost 20 years. The tr,vins are no
strangers to the Indie music scene, and although in recent years they have received
substantial criticism for the dance-pop vibes of their latest album fHeartthrobJ, they
continue to crank out genuinely intereiting music while putting on intimate shows
that include the perfect mix of their old and new jams.

This is meant to be a sort of beginner's guide to listening to Tegan and Sara - their
vast discography is slightly intimidating and, admittedly, some of their earlier
albums can be hard to get into. But I guarantee it's worth the work.
