Check out Tennis' tour dates and Broadcast cover - "Tears in the Typing Pool"

What better way to fill the time between albums than with an awesome cover. Husband-and-wife duo Tennis released their debut, Cape Dory, at the beginning of this year, and the next album, Young & Old, is due out on Valentine’s Day from Fat Possum.

In the mean time, Tennis has put out a cover of Broadcast’s “Tears in the Typing Pool”. The original track comes from 2005’s Tender Buttons, and is a little slower and more haunting than the Tennis version. The new one is still much darker than anything on Cape Dory, though. Perhaps it’s a sign of things to come.

Tennis also just announced some new dates for their February-March tour. Check out both versions of “Tear in the Typing Pool” below and Tennis’ full tour schedule under that.
