TRAVIS TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM WHERE YOU STAND ON AUGUST 20th

BAND ANNOUNCES NORTH AMERICAN TOUR BEGINNING SEPTEMBER 19th

OFFICAL VIDEO FOR TITLE TRACK NOW ONLINE

Travis, one of the UK's best known bands, return after a five year hiatus with an impressive new album Where You Stand, out August 20, 2013 on their own re-launched label Red Telephone Box via Kobalt Label Services.

Sounding more invigorated than ever, the multi-million-selling Scottish quartet have delivered a stunning new album full of the cinematic pop and instantly anthemic songs that first caught the attention of critics and music fans on their breakthrough album 'The Man Who.'

Check out the new video for the charmingly emotive title track below, here on BandWeblogs.com.

Travis will head out on tour this July that will include performances at T In The Park and the V Festival (UK), plus shows across Europe, Russia and a US headlining tour that begins September 19th in Philadelphia. Tickets go on sale on Friday, June 21, 2013.

After an incredible sixteen-year run that includes two number one albums, three Brit awards, five Top 10 singles, 12 Top 20 singles, and countless sold-out shows around the world, it was time for the band to take a well-deserved break.

"It's a lovely life," reflects bassist Dougie Payne, "but when you do it relentlessly, there's a point when it snaps you. We decided to take a break to spend time with our families. You stay away as long as it takes" he says of the well-judged fallow period "so you feel that hunger and desire to get back to it same as you did at the start."

Where You Stand is the sound of a rejuvenated band fearlessly delivering an album that embodies the spirit of their early years. From the album's opener "Mother," a bracing rush of harmonic pop with chiming piano, to the nu-wave of "Moving," the soulful "Warning Sign," and the cinematic piano ballad "The Big Screen," Where You Stand captures the urgency and fresh songwriting of four talented musicians.

Written and recorded across London, Norway, New York and Berlin's legendary Hansa Studios, Where You Stand was produced by Michael Ilbert on the same sound desk used on both 'The Man Who' and Radiohead's 'Ok Computer.'

For a group as close-knit as Travis, none of the sales, awards and adulation earned would be worth it if they weren't still together, let alone in an infinitely stronger, happier place.

"When you're in a band, you're in a band forever - its a life thing," reasons lead singer Fran Healy. "For me it's family."

Stay tuned for more music, news and more!
