Tegan and Sara

My blog would not be complete without sharing the information of my favorite band, "Tegan and Sara".  Tegan and Sara Quin are identical twin sisters and were born on September 19, 1980.  Although they both sing and play guitar in their band "Tegan and Sara" they also play the piano; which is actually the instrument they are most comfortable playing.  The sisters were born in Calgary, Albera (Canada) and began writing songs at the age of fifteen.  So far, the band has released six albums and is working on a seventh.  "Tegan and Sara" will continue to tour around the world and put on amazing live concerts for those who enjoy their indie/rock music.


For me, "Tegan and Sara" is my favorite band not only because I love their music but because of many other reasons.  Since I play sing, play guitar, and write songs of my own, Tegan and Sara are two women I look up to.  I admire how they have been a band for over ten years and put all of their affort into touring all over the world and putting on great concerts for their auidences.  I also respect how Tegan and Sara stand up for certain issues such as women's rights, animal rights, and gay rights.  I love how both Tegan and Sara connect to their fans by blogging fequently and sharing different aspects of their life.  I have seen Tegan and Sara twice in concert.  Not only were their music performances amazing, but they also talked to the crowd; sharing stories of what their songs were about to their fans.  This was a moment I will never forget because now when I listen to "Tegan and Sara" I am able to connect to their songs on a more personal level.  I recommend "Tegan and Sara" for those who enjoy indie/rock or easy listening.
