New T&S Collaborations to Get Your Quin Fix!

on September 11, 2012

Kristen's Team Pick

There are eight more days until Tegan and Sara's birthday, twelve more days until you can see them on their autumn tour and at least four months before they release their new album. I am going insane. It seems like it's been decades since I peeled the wrapper off of Sainthood or finished watching Carpool Confessionals. If you're a ridiculous fangirl like I assume you are, you're probably aching to hear something new.

Don't worry, they're making the wait a bit easier by collaborating with a few artists to indulge your cravings!

Tegan and Sara collaborate with David Guetta on "Every Chance We Run". He dropped Nothing But The Beat 2.0 today, an expansions of his 2011 with release with nine new tracks. If that still wasn't enough for you, Sara's lending her vocals to James Iha of Smashing Pumpkins fame. You'll find her on Look To The Sky's "To Who Knows Where" and "Dream Tonight." His album drops next Tuesday, giving you plenty of time to pre-order.

No comments. Are everyone at A-Camp or are everyone as underwhelmed as me, and hoping that this is nothing like the sound of T&S’s new album?

  Probably all the lucky people are headed to camp, yes.
  
  BUT I don’t think the album will be anything like the Guetta release–here’s a link to ‘Closer’ off their upcoming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anOYwYJWxZs
  
  Also as much as I dig ‘Every Chance We Run,’ I think it pales in comparison to other collaborations, such as RAC’s remix of Theophilus London’s ‘Why Even Try’ featuring Sara.
  
  So don’t loose faith just yet!

  I dunno. I kinda liked it. If you’re wanting to get a bit of a sneak peek at what their new album may sound like, go look for Closer by Tegan and Sara on youtube (I’ll try to add a link, but I don’t know if it will work or not). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0sm5HJJ8O0

  I am a massive T&S fan but I’m nervous too. Recent comments they’ve made don’t inspire much confidence either.
  
  Just have to wait and see.

      nice of you to use your privilge to think you know what will happen, very consequence-ist of you. I am really disappointed in this site.

Y’all should check out Soak. She is a 16 year old queer from Derry, N.Ireland. Songs are so beautiful for such a young girl. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FgxCIWnR4A&feature=related
