The thrill of Yours Conditionally is how Alaina’s songwriting growth and strength, the band’s label turmoil, the gnarly sailing trip, the band's influences -- Carole King, Judee Sill, Laura Nyro -- and the taking-back-the-reins of their art all converge to make this feel like the definitive Tennis album. We don’t know if Yours Conditionally will launch Tennis up into some stratosphere, to some unobtainable success level they haven’t reached before. We don’t even know if this is the best album they’ll ever make.
But we do know that the sense that Tennis are going all-in on this album is palpable, and going all-in with Tennis was a no-brainer for us.

- 1LP, Split-Color Pink & Blue Vinyl

The Whale-Avoiding, Awake-For-27-Hours-Straight Sailing Adventures of Tennis
"Someone wrote, “Tennis and their cozy sailing excursion” and I wanted to punch them in the face. They didn’t even try or wonder for one second what it was actually like to sail. It’s not cozy; it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life, psychologically, physically, and skill wise." Read more here
