GLASWEGIAN rockers Travis has released a new song ahead of the TV airing of their documentary on Sky.
Written in the Wind was originally recorded for the documentary Almost Fashionable - A Film about Travis - but now the band has released it as a single.
Frontman Fran Healy said: "Kissing in The Wind is the first song from our next studio album. We rehearsed the song while on The Man Who Tour last year and it came together really quickly.”
The documentary won the Audience Award at the coveted 2018 Edinburgh International Film Festival and follows the band on tour in Mexico in 2016 alongside journalist Wyndham Wallace, whose past disdain for the group is on public record, resulting in an amusing view from one of the Travis’s most reluctant fans.
It airs for the first time on Sky Arts at 10 pm on December 7 and features singer Fran, as well as bassist Dougie Payne, guitarist Andy Dunlop and drummer Neil Primrose.
Healy added: "We’re like a couple who celebrate their 60th anniversary and they’re still in love. It’s all about the relationship. This is the marriage of four men - and it’s hard enough to keep two people interested, never mind four.”
