Tegan and Sara Might Have Their First Top 40 Hit Next Week

We'll see if the power of radio has any power over the worthless Billboard Top 100.

I noticed on last week's chart, a song from Pitch Perfect (currently playing on HBO) is in the Top 10.

It seems like only yesterday when the Bever Brown Band did the same thing.

Eddie Lives!!

Tegan and Sara performed their hit single "Closer" and "I Was a Fool" on CBS This Morning this past Saturday. Watch their stripped down performance now on the show's website. They also just performed on NPR WNYC's "Soundcheck" yesterday, listen to the interview and watch the performance

 

Tegan and Sara recently asked their fans to submit their own fun video of themselves performing "Closer" in the vein of the official music video. The result, the "Closer" Karaoke montage video. Speaking of "Closer," the song recently went to Top 40 radio and just got added by New York's Z100, WIOQ/Philly and WMVQ/San Francisco among others.


Tegan and Sara are on the verge of charting at Top 40 for the first time in their career, a subject they discuss "Soundcheck" interview.

The girls are presently on the road with Fun. as part of the "Most Nights" Tour.
