Multi-platinum Scottish rock band Travis are going on tour this November in select US cities, with tickets and VIP packages on sale Friday, March 4th via the band’s website attravisonline.com. The tour includes show dates in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, New York City and Washington DC. The select string of performances are set to commemorate the 20th anniversary reissue of their worldwide chart topping albumThe Invisible Band, now available as a deluxe box set, as well as LP, CD, and digital formats via Craft Recordings.

Earlier this year, Travis were forced to cancel their extensive US tour dates due to an unexpected hand injury incurred when frontman Fran Healy rescued a dog caught amongst a multi-car accident outside of his home. See the full coverage on Rolling Stonehere. Following Fran’s recovery, the band are excited to announce new select tour dates in the US for the fall and hope to return for more shows across the States in 2023. 

In his own words, Healy shares, “In an attempt to save a dog, my finger was mashed up and so we had to cancel the April 2022 US tour. Now, we’re happy to announce 5 dates in the US in November. We will come around again for more but our recording schedule meant we could only do part of the tour. We look forward to seeing you there.”

On getting to revisit the album with a tour, Healy also remarked "To support the reissue of The Invisible Band on vinyl on its 20th birthday we are excited to bring it all back home... well, home to where the album was recorded, to the US. It's been such a long time since we toured America. We cannot wait to get out there and play the album live."

Travis has recently appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show with a performance of their major hit single “Sing” from The Invisible Band. The electric performance of “Sing” took place inside the historic Saint Luke’s Church in Glasgow. Clarkson showed her appreciation for the musical guests, citing the longevity of Travis’ career as a “mainstay on the British rock scene for decades.” The band also recently appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden. 

The Invisible Band is an iconic album from Travis, one that inspired the careers of Keane and Coldplay, along with many others, while charting at #1 on the UK Albums Chart and holding rank on the Billboard 200 Chart for seven weeks in the US. After only one year of the album’s release, it was certified 4x platinum, marking Travis as one of the most influential bands of the era. 

The deluxe reissue of The Invisible Band is out now and features the original album remastered by GRAMMY® Award-winning engineer Emily Lazar, as well as original B-sides, previously unreleased demos, live sessions and alternate takes. 

The special limited-edition 20th Anniversary box set features the material across two CDs and two 180-gram, ultra-clear vinyl LPs, cut at London’s Air Studios. The set includes an extensive book with unseen session photography, handwritten lyrics and essays from the band plus contributions from the original producer Nigel Godrich. A limited number of hand-numbered postcards, signed by all four of the band, are available via the Travis official store here.

The Invisible Band reissue is also available on standard black vinyl for the first time on the format since its original release. A limited green vinyl pressing is available via independent record stores, as well as a 2-CD standard edition.

About Travis:

Formed in Glasgow in 1990, Travis (Fran Healy, vocals, guitar; Andy Dunlop, lead guitar; Dougie Payne, bass; Neil Primrose, drums) came of age during Britpop’s heyday, but always stood at a remove from that scene’s barely contained mania. When the Britpop hangover kicked in at the end of the ’90s, Travis’ gentle, uplifting songs were the perfect antidote for the chaos of the preceding years. From its title on down, Good Feeling set the mood: an upbeat album unafraid to wear its emotions on its sleeve. By the time Travis took to Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage in 1999, delivering a career-defining performance, they were poised to become household names, opening the door for a new generation of introspective songwriters to come through.

Entering the new millennium as one of the biggest bands in the UK following the success of sophomore album, 1999’sThe Man Who (now certified 9x platinum, with over 2.7 million albums sold in the UK), Travis spent the remainder of the ’00s developing their sound without ever forgetting their core commitment to songwriting. The Invisible Band (2001) consolidated the group’s status as the grown-ups’ indie rock band of choice, while 2003’s 12 Memories revealed a newfound electronica influence. 2007’s The Boy With No Name was the band’s most eclectic album to date, and, in the years since, the group have only continued to build on their enduring appeal. 2008’s Ode to J Smith included the fan-favorite single ‘Something Anything’, while Where You Stand (2013) and Everything At Once (2016) returned Travis to the UK Top 5. Travis’ emotionally charged and deeply heartfelt ninth studio album, 10 Songs (2020), marked another new chapter in the band’s extraordinarily prolific and unflappable career. 10 Songs is yet another body of work that showcases the band as one of the UK’s finest song writing exports.
