In 1999, they released their debut album, Under Feet Like Ours , as “Sara and Tegan”, with producer Jared Kuemper., After listening to it, Elliot Roberts flew up from Los Angeles to meet them at the Starfish Room in Vancouver , British Columbia, and he offered them a record deal that same night. Two songs from Red Tape and two from Orange Tape appeared on the album. They later changed their name to “Tegan and Sara” because people regularly misheard “Sara and Tegan” as “Sara Antegan”. They signed with Neil Young ‘s Vapor Records and released This Business of Art through the label in 2000. According to Tegan, having no manager for the first three years of their career taught them to be “very cognizant and present” in every decision.
