Download: Travis, ‘Another Guy’

A lot has happened since Brit-pop heroes Travis last released an album in 2008, and precious little of it is pertinent to the principals’ discographies. Sure, main man Fran Healy released the lovely solo album “Wreckorder” in 2010, but beyond that, Healy and bandmates Andy Dunlop, Dougie Payne and Neil Primrose were largely minding their lives as family men, and in different cities at that. Today, Travis announced that their seventh album, “Where You Stand,” would be released Aug. 19. The title track will be out as a single next week. In the meantime, the Scottish quartet unveiled a wry video for “Another Man” – after all, spending so much time away from your band family could be construed as “cheating,” we suppose. For devotees who’ve followed Travis since their 1999 breakthrough “The Man Who” or who remember Dunlop’s magnificent moment at Coachella in 2007 (revisited after the jump), Travis’ return is welcome news indeed.
