Back in July, Tegan and Sara announced a 10th anniversary edition of their album The Con, composed entirely of cover versions recorded by friends and likeminded artists. Today, the Quin sisters released the full list of participating artists. They include Paramore‘s Hayley Williams, Ryan Adams, CHVRCHES, Trashique (a.k.a. Grimes and her musical collaborator Hana), Bleachers (a.k.a. producer Jack Antonoff), Mykki Blanco, Sara Bareilles, Shamir, Shura, and more.
There’s also a handful of digital bonus tracks, featuring Cyndi Lauper‘s version of “Back in Your Head,” as well as contributions from Bleached, writer and artist Vivek Shraya, and a demo version of a song called “Miami Still” by Tegan and Sara themselves. Proceeds from the album (and a portion of sales from Tegan and Sara’s upcoming U.S. tour) benefit the Tegan and Sara Foundation, which serves LGBTQ women and girls.
