Tegan And Sara Have A New Album, Tour, and TV Series On The Way

If you need more Tegan and Sara in your life (who doesn’t?), then prepare to be very excited.

First up, the duo is set to release their 10th studio album, Crybaby, on October 21. But you don’t have to wait until then to get a taste of the album’s brilliance, as they’ve released the first track “Yellow” as a teaser.

It’s a moody, melodic anthem about, what else, heartbreak. The single is full of the sweet and aching harmonies the pair are known for.

In a press release, Sara said the song “was written after we began to take steps to heal the bruises we have both carried with us since adolescence and early adulthood – wounds that never quite healed right and flare up seasonally, sending us spiraling backward in time. Are we doomed to remain forever 15, breaking up and breaking apart? I hope not.”

They’ve also released a video for the single directed by Mark Myers, which plays homage to Coldplay’s video for its 2000 song of the same name. The video was shot in Vancouver, Canada where the two now call home. “[It’s a] city that didn’t feel big enough to hold us both when we arrived here the first time. Twenty-two years later, we’re back, calling it home,” said Sara.

In support of the new album, Tegan and Sara are hitting the road with a new North American tour of intimate venues beginning on Oct. 26 in Philadelphia and wrapping Nov. 20 in Vancouver Canada. Tickets are available on the band’s website.

But that’s not all! Amazon Freevee is also set to release High School, a new original coming-of-age series co-created and executive produced by Tegan and Sara Quin and Clea DuVall. The series is based on the sisters’ New York Times best-selling memoir. It stars TikTok creators Railey and Seazynn Gilliland as high school versions of Tegan and Sara. Special guest stars Cobie Smulders and Kyle Bornheimer will play the twins’ parents.

And finally, the two also have a graphic novel duology, Tegan & Sara: Junior High and Tegan & Sara: Crush, coming our way in Spring 2023. The novels are written by the twins and illustrated by Eisner Award-winner Tillie Walden and follow the story of “twins growing up and growing apart, coming to terms with their queerness and falling in love with music over the course of junior high.”

These two know how to stay booked and blessed and we love to see it.
