Tegan & Sara have announced plans to tour with The Black Keys for the extension of their U.S. Tour in October. The duo will also play Austin City Limits this October.
 
Over the last couple months, Tegan & Sara have been in the studio working on their new album. The Quin sisters have been in the studio with Greg Kurstin (The Shins, Lily Allen, Sia), Mike Elizondo (Regina Spektor, Mastodon, Rilo Kiley), and Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Neon Trees, M83, Moving Units).

They've offered up fans an inside look at the process of recording through Tegan & Sara's Carpool Confessional - a weekly video show filmed from the back of their car and featuring a wide variety of special guests and musical collaborators

Tegan & Sara lend vocals to two tracks on Grammy-nominated Morgan Page's new album ‘In The Air,’ including the single, "Body Work," which they also star in the video for. 

Having remixed numerous cuts for the indie stalwarts, the three wanted to write something together from scratch. "Body Work" is a stellar example of Page's skills as a producer and as an artist: brilliantly balancing kinetic house music with blissful pop.

October 4   San   Diego, CA   Valley   View Casino Center
