Tegan and Sara tour with Hey, I’m Just Like You
The Hey, I’m Just Like You Tour will feature Tegan and Sara alone on stage in what is described as a multi-dimensional show.
“The Hey, I’m Just Like You Tour will remind you of all that is uniquely challenging about being a teenager; it will also remind you of that short and singular span of years when the future seems wondrously, enticingly possible. This is the origin story of Tegan and Sara.” – Live Nation
The gigs, starting in November, will feature Tegan and Sara alone on stage in a multi-dimensional show unlike anything they have ever done. Reading and reliving stories from their new memoir High School, performing songs from their new album Hey, I’m Just Like You along with T&S classics, and combing through archive video footage from their teenage years – this show promises a transcendent night that will both entertain and inspire.
Kicking off in Brighton, Tegan and Sara will perform in cities across the UK including a headline show at O2 Shepherds Bush Empire, London before concluding in Manchester.
High School is Tegan and Sara’s first memoir, chronicling their teenage years during the height of grunge and rave culture in the 1990s in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. While writing the memories, Tegan and Sara discovered two cassette tapes with dozens of the first songs they ever wrote between the ages of 15 and 17 – tapes that had been unheard for twenty years.
Hey, I’m Just Like You is made up entirely of new studio recordings of those early songs, recasting Tegan and Sara’s remarkable innate song writing talents as teenagers, and allowing these previously unreleased songs to benefit from the studio expertise they have gained in the past two decades as professional musicians.
