Tegan and Sara
From Vancouver, Canada
First Twin Cities show since since October 29, 2007 • First State Theatre show • First headlining show
From last.fm:
Tegan and Sara are an indie pop/indie rock duo which formed in Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 1995. The band consists of identical twin sisters Tegan Quin and Sara Quin (born September 19, 1980). Both sisters play the guitar and keyboards, and write their songs. They tour with a backing band and they're notorious for their stage banter. The duo has released seven studio albums so far: Under Feet Like Ours (1999), This Business of Art (2000), If It Was You (2002), So Jealous (2004), The Con (2007), Sainthood (2009), and Heartthrob (2013). They also issued the live album/DVD Get Along in 2011. Read more about Tegan and Sara on Last.fm.
City and Colour
From St Catharines, Canada
First Twin Cities show since since September 17, 2007 • First State Theatre show
From last.fm:
City and Colour is the recording alias for Canadian singer-songwriter Dallas Green, who was also the guitarist and vocalist of the St. Catharines, Ontario-based post-hardcore band Alexisonfire. He plays melodic acoustic/folk music, and is often accompanied by a rotating number of Canadian indie rock musicians, such as Daniel Romano and Spencer Burton of Attack in Black. The name City and Colour comes from his own name: Dallas, a city, and Green, a colour. His reasoning for the name was that he felt queasy "putting the album out under the name Dallas Green".

Girl In a Coma
From San Antonio, Texas
First Twin Cities show since since June 29, 2008 • First State Theatre show
From last.fm:
San Antonio’s Girl In A Coma have left a permanent tattoo on the hearts of thousands with their piercing songs and nuclear performances. They’ve blazed a singular trail since Nina Diaz joined the band at age 13 and have found champions and comrades along the way including Joan Jett who signed them, Morrissey, Sia, Tegan and Sara, The Pogues and Amanda Palmer who have hand selected them for tours. In addition, Robert Rodriguez asked them to compose one of the key songs for his film Machete last year. Read more about Girl in a Coma on Last.fm.
