Today's Quick Mention: Don't forget to
come out to Spiderhouse Ballroom tonight!
Lot's of great bands are playing, and if you
register at Do512 it's only $3. Also, just a
heads up, starting tomorrow the site is going on a
little holiday until July 5th. Be safe out
there, friends.
I get the feeling that Tennis is one of those acts
that people either really love or totally loathe.
That's understandable, as even their best songs can
sometimes require some patience via repeat
listens to fully appreciate. For me, though,
they're one of those pop acts I just really dig.
Below you'll find a cover that the band randomly
decided to release. Enjoy.

- Is It True? (Brenda Lee Cover):
Considering that Tennis is as retro as can been, covering an
older pop tune is obviously a natural fit for them, and it's
no surprise that this nearly sounds like it could be an
original effort of theirs. With that being said, I do
really like that they stepped away from their usually
perfect, breezy ways and allowed this to be upbeat and
sloppy.
