Now, our Chris Azzopardi sat down with the sister act for this one-on-one … or, one-on-two. We revisited that defining era in music — and even before then, when the girls were hanging New Kids on the Block posters in their bedroom — during our interview with the Quin sisters. Sara: We were reimagining our teen years when we were putting this video together. In middle school and high school, we loved house parties.
Tegan and Sara Foundation Convening, Jan. As musicians who kicked off their careers in their teens in Calgary, Alberta, they also sit on the board of the Girls Rock Camp Foundation. In partnership and solidarity with other organizations fighting for LGBTQ and women's rights, the Foundation raises awareness and funds to address the inequalities currently preventing LGBTQ girls and women from reaching their full potential. Sara spoke with Samaritanmag about a range of issues, from the influence of her mother to being disrespected in the early years of their career to what her plans and hopes are for the Foundation.
As their profile has grown, the Quin sisters have also established themselves as significant queer voices in the music industry. Now, 20 years after they released debut album Under Feet Like Ours , Tegan and Sara are allowing themselves to reflect on their personal evolution. With both the book and album about to drop, I spoke to Sara Quin about the complicated and sometimes painful emotions she experienced while working on these projects. Nick Levine: What did you learn about your teenage self from writing this memoir?
