Considering their UK tour is starting tomorrow, I thought I'd give them a mention.
Anyone know/love/heard of them?

Bought tickets for their last gig they did in London but couldn't get anyone to go with so didn't end up going.
I love Tegan and Sara :cool: I've been obsessed with 'The Con' for months, and I still can't get tired of that album, or their other cds
I'm going to see them in Manchester on 1st of March. I'm really looking forward to it as I saw them last summer and it was a great night!
The on stage banter between tegan and sara is very funny, and their interaction with the audience is fun, too.
Yea- was at the gig too- they really had the crowd properly laughing...Tegan is well funny.
Also- ace music and a great set-list...although thought that "Dark Come Soon" was a strange choice of opener (despite its brilliance!)
I like Tegan and Sara, but I didn't know about The Con, it's newer than anything I have, so I'm glad you mentioned it.
...
Re their tour, what's the story with this one: "Sailing Tall Ships From Edinburgh To Dublin for the Rotary Foundation"?
Is that the name of a venue, or would they be performing on a sailing ship?
Im glad I did because I cannot put this CD off its great. Quick check of the back catalouge some gems of songs but not consistent as The Con, which is is a step up.
It is female indie rock pop (not that that is a bad thing) and anyone with an ear and a small knowledge of songwriting craft will know that it is quality.
Reading reviews from uk sources will have you in disbelief as they are totally dismisive for whatever small minded reasons (female, pop indie, lesbians) do these people actually listen or are they too full of themselves.
As a 36 year old male I will add this happily to my CD collection with my Velvet underground, pixies, alex chilton, teenage fanclub. breeders, white stripes etc.. aka real music not too polished but from the heart anyone who dismises this for whatever reason is a fool.
I've been aware of them for years. They're on the PARAHOY! cruise with Paramore at the moment and apparently their set was very well received by the crowd. I've tried to get into their music but I've never quite managed it.
I'm listening to them on Spotify at the moment. "Drove Me Wild" is good. Any songs in particular that will convert me?
Not too keen on their song for the Lego Movie (Everything Is Awesome!) but you may like it...
I agree with you about 'Heartthrob', it's so good! My favourite song on the album is 'Drove Me Wild'.
