Video Premiere

Tegan and Sara Work Out

February 27, 2012 0 Comments

The music video for Morgan Page & Tegan and Sara‘s “Body Work” may be set in a gym, but the twin siblings don’t break much of a sweat, unless folding towels is some new P90X move I’m not aware of. But whatever your fitness routine — card-carrying club member or sedentary couch potato — just listening to the beat of “Body Work” is bound to bump up your heart rate. Watching the clip’s hardbodies might get you going too.

Sara recently shared some background about “Body Work,” a track that nabbed the Saturdance spotlight prior to today’s music video debut:

The song and collaboration with Morgan happened a few summers ago and we are truly excited to see it finally making its way out into the world. I sat down in my stuffy humid closet to pencil in vocal melodies and lyrics in early July 2010 and then Morgan and I traded emails with his awesome suggestions and direction for a few more weeks. The final product is something I feel really proud of. It’s incredibly rewarding to work with other artists on projects, and Tegan and I continue to feel grateful for opportunities like this one! We’ve since performed the song live with Morgan and truly enjoyed his supportive fan base and the late night positive party vibe. It really took me back to our teenage years where we would dance all night in random warehouses and clubs. That was of course nearly a decade and a half ago, and now I’m lucky if I can keep my eyes open to finish a chapter of a book after midnight.

Tegan and Sara are currently recording their seventh studio album, the follow-up to 2009’s Sainthood. Greg Kurstin (Kelly Clarkson, Sia, Lily Allen) is producing.
