The band Tennis will always hold a special place in my heart. When Gram was first born and I was constantly trying to come up with ways soothe my little newborn guy to sleep, I turned to Spotify Radio for mellow tunes. The Devendra Banhart station proved to be very successful for me (and Gram). Two of his favorites turned out to be Elliott Smith's Between The Bars & Tennis' Marathon. I listened to tons of classic metal while pregnant and I ended up with an emo/indie baby… who knew?! Cut to 7 months later and we're pretty much sleeping through the night and Gram's musical tastes have expanded a bit but he still loves Marathon. We've been playing the new Tennis album, Ritual In Repeat since we got a special sneak peek a couple months ago and loved having it as a late summer soundtrack. We're heading to The Casbah to catch their show on 10/26 and so should you. It'll be a fun, mellow night out. I know we're pretty stoked to get back to The Casbah after a bit of a baby hiatus! Check out an album teaser below and get the full album here.
