Alaina Moore (born May 9, 1985) and Patrick Riley (born September 9, 1986) met in a philosophy class as students at the University of Colorado Denver in 2008. The couple started the band after returning from an eight-month sailing expedition on the Eastern Atlantic Seaboard after their graduation. Moore initially had intended to go to law school. The songs on the band's first album document their experiences sailing. Before forming Tennis, Moore's earliest singing experience was in church choirs during her youth.
