IconTegan plays brand new song at charity gig [video]

Tegan Quin last week performed onstage without her sister Sara for only the third time ever.

Tegan played at Liner Notes, a mash-up of music and literature organised by SPIN.com. Tegan shared the stage with author Augusten Burroughs, and played ‘His Love’, a song she wrote for the audiobook version of Burroughs’ latest novel, A Wolf at the Table.

The gig raised more than $8,000 for Housing Works, a charity for low-income people living with HIV/AIDS.

Below is a video of Tegan performing the new song at Liner Notes, complete with adorable mistakes:

And as if that wasn’t enough, here’s a video interview of Tegan talking to Spin.com several months before the show, in which she talks about how she came to collaborate with Burroughs, what it’s like to play alone on stage, and how Sara annoys her during shows:
