The Denver indie pop band Tennis is from made up of husband-and-wife duo Alaina Moore and Patrick Riley. During their first tour, James Barone joined the band on drums. Their first releases, both in July 2010, were the ''Baltimore'' EP on the Underwater Peoples label and the ''South Carolina'' single on Fire Talk. Tennis released their first studio album, Cape Dory on Fat Possum Records in January 2011. The album, featured on NPR, is based on the couple's experiences during a seven-month sailing trip on the Eastern Atlantic Seaboard. The second Tennis album, Young & Old, was released on Fat Possum Records on February 14, 2012, and was produced by Patrick Carney of The Black Keys. The album's single ''Origins'' was issued on Forest Family Records on December 6, 2011. Tennis has also displayed a knack for covers, with self-released versions of ''Tell Her No'' by The Zombies, ''Is It True?'' by Brenda Lee, and ''Tears in the Typing Pool'' by Broadcast.
