TENNIS
‘Take Me Somewhere’
New single released digitally July 18 on Carmen San Diego Records
Announce UK live dates in July
“The spirit of early Phil Spector productions, but with a dreamy, melodic pop edge that would melt the most cynical of hearts” – Guardian
“Wistful…effortlessly breezy…like Dum Dum Girls playing a low-key set at a beach party” – Pitchfork
“Languid indie escapism” – NME
With high summer just around the corner it seems like the perfect time for Tennis to release new single ‘Take Me Somewhere’, a standout from debut album Cape Dory. All woozy, doo-wop waves of guitar, the hum of an organ and exuberant choruses, the song will undoubtedly provide essential escapism as the warmer months ensue. Such is the delightful nature of the get-away tale that it’s enough to entice an impromptu adventure, perhaps a summer holiday wherever the road may take you.
In support of ‘Cape Dory’, Tennis will also be embarking on a UK and European tour encompassing dates at London’s Cargo and Lounge On The Farm before they head off across Europe. The duo embarked on a string of sold-out dates in the UK and Europe in January gaining ardent support from the likes of the Guardian and NME, and recently completed a full US tour and showcase at SXSW. If their winter jaunt was anything to go by trust us when we say, these are certainly shows you won’t want to miss.
The debut album “Cape Dory” was released on Carmen San Diego Records on May 23rd
