After a prolonged absence, Scottish alternative rock veterans Travis are making their much-anticipated return to Australia. Scheduled for January 2026, the BRIT award-winning band will treat audiences to a special performance of their iconic album “The Man Who,” which catapulted them to stardom and solidified their place in music history.

Originally hailing from Glasgow, Travis surged to fame with their platinum-selling debut album “Good Feeling” in 1997. However, it was their groundbreaking release “The Man Who” in 1999 that truly propelled them to superstardom. The album dominated the UK charts for nine consecutive weeks, achieving an astonishing nine times platinum status in the UK and selling over 110,000 copies in Australia alone. Hits like “Why Does It Always Rain On Me?” became timeless classics in the indie music landscape.

Subsequent albums such as “The Invisible Band” in 2001, featuring songs like “Sing” and “Flowers in the Window,” further established Travis as a musical powerhouse. With a discography spanning ten albums, culminating in 2024’s “L.A. Times,” the band has maintained a strong presence at major music festivals worldwide.

Travis has not only garnered critical acclaim but also influenced a new generation of artists, with Coldplay and Keane often citing them as inspirations. Their Australian tour signifies more than just a nostalgic trip down memory lane; it presents a rare opportunity to witness the band perform one of the most significant albums of their era in its entirety, reaffirming their enduring relevance in the music industry.

Don’t miss the chance to experience Travis live in concert, delivering a memorable performance of “The Man Who” along with a selection of their greatest hits. Tickets are on sale now for what promises to be an unforgettable musical journey through the band’s illustrious career.
