This is the first ever biography of the band who in twelve short months came out of nowhere to claim every prize in the UK music industry.

Their brand of spiritual and lyrical rock best seen on the remarkable second album, The Man Who quickly notched up multi-million sales. Travis: Closer Every Year tells the roller-coaster story of the band who met at Glasgow School of Art in 1990, spending years trawling the underground gig circuit, before a performance on Later With Jools Holland caused a record company dash to sign them.
