Tegan and Sara Announce The Con 10th Anniversary Acoustic Tour

Tegan and Sara Announce The Con 10th Anniversary Acoustic Tour

Tegan and Sara

Ticket sales will benefit the Tegan and Sara Foundation, which "works for economic justic, health and representation for LGBTQ girls and women."

Tegan and Sara have announced they'll do an acoustic tour this fall in celebration of the 10-year anniversary of their fifth studio album, The Con. So, did anyone else just realize Tegan and Sara have been actively making music for 20 years?

The tour is one of two "special projects" the singer-songwriter sisters announced today--the second remains a secret.

"In 2007, we released The Con, forever changing the course of our career and connecting us to so many of you for the first time," Tegan and Sara said in a statement. "To honour the album's 10th anniversary, we will be celebrating with two very special projects this year. Today we are excited to announce the first project--The Con X: Tour. This fall we will travel across North America performing special acoustic arrangements of all 14 songs from The Con in order, followed by other T&S classics."

Tickets for the tour will be available on Tegan and Sara's site starting this Friday, and part of the funds raised will go toward the Tegan and Sara Foundation, which "works for economic justice, health and representation for LGBTQ girls and women."

"With The Con it was obvious we had turned a corner and hit an open stretch of highway--it was our first fully-realized Tegan and Sara record," the two continued. "The album was written about love, death, fear and anxiety, and 10 years later we continue to be amazed by how much it touched people. Much of it hasn't been performed live in nearly a decade so it's with great pleasure that we take these beloved songs back to the stage."
