Album Description
Available in:
Hey, I'm Just Like You is the ninth studio album by Canadian indie pop duo Tegan and Sara, released via Sire Records on September 27, 2019. The album contains re-recordings of unreleased demo songs that the duo recorded as teenagers, and marks a partial return to their original rock-influenced sound. The lead single, "I'll Be Back Someday," was released on July 25, 2019. The second single, “Hey, I’m Just Like You,” was released September 6, 2019, and the third single, "Don't Believe the Things They Tell You (They Lie)," was released on September 20, 2019.

Background
While working on their memoir High School, the duo found dozens of cassette recordings of songs they wrote between the ages of 15 and 17. From April 2019, they began rewriting parts of the lyrics but kept the "essence" of each song, and said: "This is the record we never could have made as teenagers, full of songs we never could have written as adults." With the announcement, the duo said the album would contain elements of their "rock and punk roots, with a punch of pop production", and that it is the first "Tegan and Sara album produced, performed, engineered, mixed, and mastered by a team of all women".

Promotion
Tegan and Sara announced the album on July 9, with a trailer showing home videos of themselves as teenagers playing guitar mixed with new footage of them working on the new versions of the songs.

On July 22, the first single from the album, "I'll Be Back Someday", was announced. It was released on July 25. The second single released was the title track, on September 6th, along with a lyric video consisting of footage of the two as teenagers.

A tour in support of the album and their memoir High School was announced on July 24. It will consist of largely acoustic renditions of songs from the album, as well as older songs and clips of the two in high school.
