Their music mixes indie pop mixed with 1970s styled soul and 1980s styled new wave music, and is notable for Alaina Moore's distinctive expressive singing voice and Riley's melodic guitar playing. Tennis usually produces their own music and has their own record label called Mutually Detrimental.
The idea for the project began one day a couple of years ago when Alaina made fun of Patrick for playing tennis in college. A year later the two fled their hometown Denver to spend eight months sailing and exploring the North Atlantic coast. During their adventures they began writing music together documenting their experiences. The Longboat Pass Songfacts reports that the pair eventually recorded their songs. The resulting album, Cape Dory, is about their time on the seas, the majority of the tracks being about the difficulties they experienced during their trip.
There other artists with the same name:
2. Australian Indie band containing two brothers, two cousins and a mystery bass player. Tennis have left the halcyon days of art school behind in pursuit of the perfect musical storm. Tennis played their first gig at a strip club in Surry Hills circa ’06, simultaneously debuting in Sydney’s indie and adult entertainment scenes.
Pursuing the former rather than the latter, Tennis have since graced the stages of many more credible venues, supporting the likes of; Matt & Kim(USA), The Ruby Suns(NZ), Wolf and Cub, Children Collide, Lost Valentinos, Tame Impala and The Holidays. Their colliding beats, wild rhythms, melodic vocals and stark atmospheres meld into a festive music de force driving listeners into a sweaty rapture.
3. IDM project of Ben Edwards & Douglas Benford. Their releases:
Wooden Sweets (CD, 2000)
Duckshelf / Interview (7", Expanding 2001)
Europe On Horseback (CD, BiP_HOp 2001)
Furlines (2xCD, BiP_HOp 2003)
4. A now-defunct alternative pop/punk band from New York consisting of singer/guitarist Greg Tuohey, bassist Kris Bauman, and drummer Jochen Rueckert.

I Need Your Love
Tennis Lyrics
Baby I'm fated but you will be waiting
I will have made it
But you'll be explaining what you
Think the world owes you
Looking for someone to carry you into
Futures that beckon but need to be followed through
I hope you're happy
I hope you're please
I thought you were a victim
But it's clear to me
I need your love
And I need your touch, like
I need a bolt of lightning from the sky above, I've
Been thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
I'm thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
Talking a lot
Like a prophet but there's no
Wisdom in what you've been saying
And I can't seem to
Get a read on you
Burning your bridges
And spreading around those
Rumors that sprout from the cracks
In the ground, oh no
I hope you're happy
I hope you're pleased
I thought you were a victim
But it's clear to me
Baby you've got more poison than sugar
Baby you've got more poison than sugar
Baby you've got more poison than sugar
Baby you've got more poison
I need your love
And I need your touch, like
I need a bolt of lightning from the sky above, I've
Been thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
I'm thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
(I can't escape you)
Who could blame me?
Every time I hear your name I go crazy
Ooh, pretty baby
Every time I hear your name I go crazy
I need your love
And I need your touch, like
I need a bolt of lightning from the sky above, I've
Been thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh (I can't escape you)
I'm thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
(I can't escape you)
(I can't escape you)
(I can't escape you)
(I can't escape you)
I will have made it
But you'll be explaining what you
Think the world owes you
Looking for someone to carry you into
Futures that beckon but need to be followed through
I hope you're happy
I hope you're please
I thought you were a victim
I need your love
And I need your touch, like
I need a bolt of lightning from the sky above, I've
Been thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
I'm thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
Talking a lot
Like a prophet but there's no
Wisdom in what you've been saying
And I can't seem to
Get a read on you
Burning your bridges
And spreading around those
Rumors that sprout from the cracks
In the ground, oh no
I hope you're happy
I hope you're pleased
I thought you were a victim
But it's clear to me
Baby you've got more poison than sugar
Baby you've got more poison than sugar
Baby you've got more poison than sugar
Baby you've got more poison
I need your love
And I need your touch, like
I need a bolt of lightning from the sky above, I've
Been thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
I'm thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
(I can't escape you)
Who could blame me?
Every time I hear your name I go crazy
Ooh, pretty baby
Every time I hear your name I go crazy
I need your love
And I need your touch, like
I need a bolt of lightning from the sky above, I've
Been thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh (I can't escape you)
I'm thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can't escape you, oh
(I can't escape you)
(I can't escape you)
(I can't escape you)
(I can't escape you)

Baby, I’m fated
But you will be waiting
I will have made it
But you’ll be explaining what you think the world owes you
Looking for someone to carry
Into futures that beckon but need to be followed in
I hope you’re happy
I hope you’re pleased
I thought you were a victim
But it’s clear to me
I need your love
And I need your touch
Like I need a bolt of lightning
From the sky above
I’ve been thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can’t escape you, oh
I’ve been thinking about you
I can’t escape you, oh
Talking a lot like a prophet
But there’s no wisdom in what you’ve been saying
And I can’t seem to
Get a weight on you
And in your bridges, they're spreading around those rumors that spread from the cracks in the ground, oh no
I hope you’re happy
I hope you’re pleased
I thought you were a victim
But it’s clear to me
Baby, you’ve got more poison than sugar
Baby, you’ve got more poison than sugar
Baby, you’ve got more poison than sugar
Baby, you’ve got more poison
I need your love
And I need your touch
Like I need a bolt of lightning
From the sky above
I’ve been thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can’t escape you, oh
(I can’t escape you)
I’ve been thinking about you
I can’t escape you, oh
(I can’t escape you)
Ooh, who could blame me
Every time I hear your name, I go crazy
Oh pretty baby
Every time I hear your name, I go crazy
But I need your love
And I need your touch
Like I need a bolt of lightning
From the sky above
I’ve been thinking about you
Thinking about you
I can’t escape you, oh
(I can’t escape you)
I’ve been thinking about you
I can’t escape you, oh
(I can’t escape you)
(I can’t escape you)
(I can’t escape you)
(I can’t escape you)
