Tegan and Sara Play for Amnesty International "Call It Off" Video Premieres Online This Monday


BURBANK, Calif., Sep 17, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Amnesty International is marking the 60th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights with the 'Small Places Tour'.

Launched this past Wednesday in London by Peter Gabriel and The Edge, the Small Places Tour will be built upon numerous artists around the globe taking an existing show commitment between now and December 10th, and pro-actively choosing to perform for Amnesty.

Tegan and Sara
have chosen to perform for Amnesty International on October 6th at Terminal 5 in New York City. Partial profits from the evening will be directed to Amnesty International's ongoing campaign for human rights. More information is available here

Also, the new video for "Call It Off," from the Sire Records album, THE CON, will premier this coming Monday, September 15, on AOL Music. The clip was filmed in Vancouver, BC, by director Angela Kendall. It looks fantastic so look for it at: www.music.aol.com as well as www.spinner.com.

We hope to have info on the premier of the new video from Against Me!, "Borne On The FM Waves Of The Heart," soon which features a duet with Against Me! vocalist/guitarist Tom Gabel and Tegan recently filmed in LA in glorious black and white.

As previously reported, Chicago punk band Alkaline Trio has recently recorded a version of "Wake Up Exhausted" which appears on their new single. This past July 24, Alkaline Trio and Tegan recorded a live version of the song especially for AOL Music show "The Interface."

This exclusive performance can viewed here (the performance is a link at the bottom). While in the studio Tegan also filmed a short (and very funny) segment for "DL For AOL" which is viewable here

As previously announced Tegan and Sara will begin their final tour in support of THE CON, September 20, at the San Diego Street Scene. Tegan and Sara will be available for interviews.
