Travis

In this electrifying live recording from November 30, 1998, Travis was riding high on the success of their sophomore album, 'The Man Who,' which had just dropped earlier that year. The album catapulted them into the limelight, especially with iconic tracks like 'Why Does It Always Rain on Me?' and 'Writing to Reach You,' showcased in this performance. By this time, the band had established their signature melodic sound that resonated deeply with audiences, often characterized by introspective lyrics and catchy choruses. Interestingly, this was around the period when they began shifting the British music scene towards a more emotional and reflective songwriting style, something that set them apart from their contemporaries. The 2 Meter Sessions provided them a perfect platform to connect with fans, capturing both their raw energy and lyrical depth.
