Tegan And Sara – “I’ll Be Back Someday”

Tegan And Sara – “I’ll Be Back Someday”

In September, Tegan And Sara are coming out with a new album, Hey, I’m Just Like You, which is made up of songs that the twins wrote during high school and revisited and re-recorded earlier this year. This particularly reflective period of their career coincides with the release of their first-ever memoir, High School, which will be out a few days before the album.

Today, they’re sharing its first single, “I’ll Be Back Someday,” which finds the duo returning to the guitar-based sound of their earlier work while incorporating some of the studio sheen that’s characterized their more recent stuff.

Sara had this to say about the origins of the track:

We had been begging for an electric guitar, and on our 16th birthday, we got one. Of course, we had to share it, so it became a weapon that we stole from each other’s rooms, barricading ourselves behind locked doors with guitar in hand. Screaming over the small amplifier, we tested our voices by writing punk songs, shredding our thumbs on the strings.
