We couldn't be more proud to see Everything is Awesome has been nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Song!! This was the first time we contributed to a track that was specifically written for a film, and it's been a real thrill to watch it become such a popular song with people of all ages! On our tour dates last fall with Katy Perry we performed a version of it, and the venues would light up as kids and their…
One of our favourite things to do over Christmas this year was to go online to see the photos everyone was posting as they received So Jealous X in the mail. We were having so much fun seeing your excitement over what we put together for you to celebrate such an important time in our lives. So thank you for sharing that with us! The So Jealous X retrospective collection, including the deluxe box set, is still available for…
A huge thanks to all of you who placed a bid and supported our 12 Days of Shades fundraising auction! We are thrilled to be able to donate the $6201.33 we raised to the Southern Poverty Law Center, to support their work fighting hate and bigotry and seeking justice for the most vulnerable members of our society. We were so inspired by your generosity, that we are going to match this amount and make a…
As you all know - we love sunglasses. We've been lucky enough to be gifted A LOT of them this past year from some of our favourite sunglass companies. In addition to those gifts, we also find ourselves purchasing new ones on tour. And at home. And online. :) The sunglasses have started to pile up. So, rather than shamefully hiding the excess under our beds, we have decided to put them to better use.…
When we put together our retrospective collection celebrating the 10 year anniversary of the release of So Jealous, we immediately thought it was the perfect opportunity to share some of our original demos with you. Our fans have always been so interested in our recording process, so what better way to remember songs that you were so intimate with, than to hear them at their inception! On the other hand, we also wanted to give…
Wow! Everything Is Awesome has been nominated in the category of Best Song Written for Visual Media by The GRAMMYs! We had such a great time singing on the track with The Lonely Island!
We are encouraged by the latest news from our home province of Alberta, that the Premier has put the third reading of Bill 10 on hold, due to mounting public pressure. So if you were a part of that, we thank you! This provides us with an opportunity to ensure the next version of this bill truly accomplishes the goal of prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation. The key issue of Bill 10 was that…

With the holidays just around the corner (seriously, where does the time go?) we’re excited to launch a few pieces of seasonal merchandise! First off, we have a T+S Ornament with the same art from the Lipstick t-shirt that we debuted on tour – designed by E.E. Storey! We also have a 2015 calendar featuring some of our favourite photos from Heartthrob. We’ll be taking some time off next year to write and record, but…
One of the elements of So Jealous X that we are most excited about is the Bonus Audio CD. It contains remixes, covers and some of our original demos for the album, plus a few unreleased b-sides. We have lived with these songs for 10 years now, and it's thrilling to share them with you and also to hear some of them re-imagined in a modern way. We'll be premiering a few of the songs…
