Singer-songwriter duo Patrick Walsh and Andrew Clarke began writing and performing music under the name Tennis Courts in 2019. With a fluctuating lineup of local musicians, the pair made a name for themselves in the beer-lit basements and bars of Charleston, South Carolina with their raw and rowdy brand of hyper-caffeinated indie rock.

Tennis Courts relocated to Brooklyn, NY in 2021, where they quickly set roots and found a consistent collaborator with guitarist Brian McKenna. In their new home, the band continues to work, play, and hone their craft. Drawing on a wide range of influences from Big Star to Big Thief, Tennis Courts sits comfortably on the fence between power pop glitz and alt-country gloom.

The band’s debut full-length “You Won’t Find It On Your Own” is out now. Recorded in Oakhurst, New Jersey with Erik Romero, the record captures Tennis Courts at their most vulnerable. Without sparing any of the noise and energy that made them dive-bar favorites, the new songs explore the dread and confusion of navigating life in your 20s. With anthems for the night of and the morning after, Tennis Courts has created a soundtrack for weekend benders everywhere.

Their earnest and schoolboy approach to crafting catchy rock music has garnered the band a following of musicians,artists,and locals looking for cheap thrills.
