In Photos: Tennis @ The Lexington, London (07.01.11)

Seafaring sixties throwbacks Tennis will release their nautically-inspired debut album, Cape Dory, next week on Fat Possum Records. The band kicked off a European tour last Friday with a gig at London's Lexington, and Anika Mottershaw headed along to take some snaps for us. As it turned out, there wasn't a seagull or sailor's hat in sight, but the Coloradoans still put on a fine show: think a husband-and-wife Camera Obscura jamming in Phil Spector's basement - the perfect antidote for the January blues in other words.
