Released 13th August 2021. None other than Elton John raved that 12 Memories would “take you on a real journey… like The Beatles’ Revolver”. And, just like The Beatles in 1966, Travis were at a critical juncture when it came to recording their fourth album. Coldplay had launched a career patterned on Travis’ The Man Who-era songwriting, while frontman Fran Healy was secretly battling depression. With the Iraq war newly raging in the background, the group began to look outwards in their songwr...

Expected Release 3rd December 2021. The Man Who’s success may have seemed impossible to build upon, but when it came to crafting a follow-up, Travis’ natural composure became their greatest asset. Returning to the studio with The Man Who’s co-producer Nigel Godrich (Radiohead, Beck, Paul McCartney) they crafted a near-perfect 45-minute album praised by Q magazine for having some of “the best and most fully crafted” songs of their career to date. Lead single ‘Sing’ remains their highest-charti...

Released 6th March 2020. SK Albums of the Year 2020. 'Tucson, Arizona is better known for producing the desert fusion sounds of acts like Giant Sand and Calexico but experimental duo Trees Speak instead take inspiration from the motorik jams of bands like Neu! and Cluster. 'Ohms', the first of two albums from them this year (and the first original artist album to be released on the venerable Soul Jazz Records reissue label), distils those influences into bitesize fragments which, taken as a w...
