Courting have dropped a new single, ‘Tennis’ – listen

  • Stephen Ackroyd
  • April 6, 2022

Courting have dropped a new single, ‘Tennis’.

The track comes alongside the announcement that the band have signed with new label [PIAS], and are set to hit the road for a new run of tour dates this September and October.

Produced by GRAMMY-nominated James Dring (Gorillaz, Jamie T, Sorry, Lana Del Rey, Blur, Loyle Carner), ‘Tennis’ showcases a musical leap forward for the band. Speaking about the track, they explain: “Tennis is a paypig’s personal redemption narrative, set in “the city”, and told in two parts. A twisted tale of two lovers’ back and forth, bound by cricket, bodybuilding, and money. A story as old as time.

We named the song Tennis as a logical (but unrelated) sequel to our two previously released sports-related songs. To us, this felt like a natural ending to that idea. Dynamically, the second part of the song is supposed to represent a shift in tone for the character in which they realise their own worth and leave the situation that is set within the first part of the song.”

Those tour dates – which go on sale at 10am on Friday, 8th April – read:
