Tegan and Sara took the stage of Danforth Music Hall in June, to the delight of the crowd of diehard fans who’d been waiting eight months since the duo’s original tour date had been postponed. The anticipation was palpable in the room when the first chord struck out, and Tegan and Sara gave the audience exactly what they’d come to hear.

They performed deep cuts (“My Number”), throwback fan favourites (“Back in Your Head”), superhits (“Closer”) and a number of tracks off their newest album, Crybaby. The sisters, originally from Calgary, have been releasing music for 25 years, and have blazed a trail for other queer artists. They went from indie darlings to pop juggernauts, never once losing sight of what makes them so outstanding: their endearing sincerity. The staying power of their songwriting and their devotion to their artistry were on full display that night at the Danforth. Tune in to their episode of CBC Music Live to be regaled by personal anecdotes about their humble beginnings, to see the twins’s all-white coordinated outfits, and of course, to hear some phenomenal music.
