TRAVIS Makes A Triumphant Return With 12 Memories On October 14!
The one-time 'invisible band' - Travis ? return after an absence of some two years with their fourth LP 12 Memories on October 14th and seven-city US tour which kicks off on October 21st in New York City. 12 Memories is Travis at their most powerful, poignant and effecting. It is an album that sees Travis explore lyrically darker themes ? the forthcoming single Re-Offender, to be released in the UK on September 29th, tackles the hidden crime of domestic violence. Esteemed photographer and director Anton Corbijn captures the essence of the song in it's video. Musically, too, there is a sea of change: Travis have rediscovered a spirit of adventure and set sail on courses new. This is a far edgier and brooding set of songs than anything that has gone before. Yet, Travis still possess an eloquence and an ear to a fine tune.

The Eagles originally named "Teen King And The Emergencies," they liked the American sound of Eagles and the way it was aligned with The Byrds who had a great influence on them.
