Entertainment Weekly observed, “The indie-rock duo's new memoir and companion album ditches rock stardom for a funny, raw, and relatable look at being a teen.” Rolling Stone – relishing the “double whammy” of the album and the book – said, “Tegan and Sara’s debut memoir is a lot like their songs: complexly intimate, smartly crafted and packing a subtle emotional wallop.” Pitchfork hailed the album as “a fierce reminder of the twins’ ability to write an irresistible chorus.” VICE observed, “Especially as outwardly queer artists from the start, this steady, decades-long climb is nearly unprecedented and has paved the way for pop stars like Halsey, Hayley Kiyoko, and King Princess to be able to sing about female desire on Top 40 Radio.” Their sold-out, multi-dimensional headline tour continues on the West Coast. All tour dates HERE. One dollar from every ticket sold on the tour will benefit the Tegan and Sara Foundation, which fights for health, economic justice, and representation for LGBTQ girls and women.
