And the Conquering Sun is a collaborative album by Gord Downie and The Sadies, released on Arts & Crafts Productions in 2014. The album began when The Sadies were invited to perform on the CBC Radio concert series Fuse; the series centred on collaborative concerts between multiple artists, and the Sadies selected Downie as they had just completed opening for The Tragically Hip on that band's World Container tour. The set list they performed on that broadcast comprised covers of artists such as Roky Erickson, Johnny Cash and Iggy and the Stooges. Downie and the Sadies subsequently continued to occasionally write songs together, eventually deciding to release their original material as an album. Downie and the Sadies supported the album with a concert tour, with performances from the tour compiled for the 2026 live album Live at 6 O'Clock.
