Every great picture tells a story. It’s an adage borne out dramatically by the stunning cover art of Travis’s tenth studio album 'L.A. Times’. Echoing some of their most beloved records – The Man Who, The Invisible Band and The Boy With No Name – we’re once again greeted by the sight of four distant figures, dwarfed to the point of imperceptibility by their vast surroundings. And yet, there beneath the concrete and glitter of downtown Los Angeles at night, there’s something powerful about the fact that these are the same four musicians who first came to prominence in 1996 with their debut EP ‘All I  Want To Do Is Rock’. An unbroken line-up for an unbroken band – Fran Healy (vocals, guitar); Andy Dunlop (guitar); Dougie Payne (bass); Neil Primrose (drums) – the coordinates of their extraordinary journey together marked by this latest in a series of arresting images by world-renowned photographer Stefan Ruiz (New York Times, The New Yorker, Vogue, Time).

Travis, the iconic British rock band formed in Glasgow in 1990, has left an indelible mark on the music scene with their evocative melodies and introspective lyrics. Comprised of frontman Fran Healy, guitarist Andy Dunlop, bassist Dougie Payne, and drummer Neil Primrose, the band gained widespread recognition in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Their breakthrough album, The Man Who (1999), propelled them to international stardom with hit singles like “Why Does It Always Rain on Me?” and “Driftwood.” This album’s melancholic yet hopeful tone resonated deeply with audiences, establishing Travis as a defining voice of the post-Britpop era.
