Recorded on December 20, 2003, this special sellout show before a crowd of 8,000 at London's Alexandra Palace captures Travis at their dynamic best-a full 22 songs, the soundtrack to an unforgettable evening. Along with live performances of their hits "Why Does It Always Rain On Me?," "Sing," and "Driftwood," TRAVIS AT THE PALACE also includes recent singles "Re Offender," "The Beautiful Occupation," and "Love Will Come Through." TRAVIS AT THE PALACE also features an exclusive behind- the-scenes film, Inside TRAVIS AT THE PALACE, that provides unique access to the band and the events that surrounded the concert. The film follows Travis from arrival to departure and includes exclusive sound-check performances and backstage footage.
Leading a renaissance of earnestness is the Scottish band Travis, whose December 20, 2003 concert at London's Alexandra Palace finds the young band onstage and on fire before a polite yet enthusiastic crowd of 8,000. It's a huge hall, almost too big for the band's intimate, introspective music. But Travis pulls off a high-energy show built around its 2003 12 Memories album, lighting songwriter Fran Healy's pure-pop cadences with terse arrangements and bursts of overdriven sound. The band plays tight and clean, commendably resisting the tendency among bands to get noisy when they want to sound powerful. If only director Matt Askem better understood this concept. The cameras are always moving, giving us almost no stationary vantage. Still, the picture looks great, with terrific use of black and supersaturated hues emphasizing primary colors. Travis at the Palaceis an exciting record of a band in its prime.
Travis are an alternative rock band from Glasgow, Scotland, comprising Fran Healy (lead vocals, guitar, piano, banjo), Dougie Payne (bass guitar, backing vocals), Andy Dunlop (lead guitar, banjo, keyboards, backing vocals) and Neil Primrose (drums, percussion). Travis have twice been awarded British album of the year at the annual BRIT Awards, and are often credited with having paved the way for bands such as Coldplay, Keane and Snow Patrol. They have released nine studio albums, beginning with their debut, Good Feeling, in 1997. Their latest album, 10 Songs, was released in October 2020.
