Continuing to gain momentum as her young career heats up, the tour arrives just as Tegan Marie’s empowering video for “I Know How To Make A Boy Cry” accomplishes a major milestone, surpassing 1.1 million views on YouTube in less than a month. With a nod to one of her greatest musical heroes Elvis Presley and his legendary 1968 Comeback Special, the uniquely fun video flips the script on an iconic artist who famously made all the girls weep, and was even
shared by the official website of Graceland - Presley’s world-famous mansion and fan mecca.
