Travis

In July 2005, Travis took the stage at Live 8 in Hyde Park, London, during a pivotal moment in their career following the release of their fourth studio album, 'The Boy with No Name.' This album, which featured the popular single 'Sing,' marked a period of renewed energy for the band after some fluctuations in their earlier output. Playing in front of an audience of millions, Travis contributed to a monumental cause aimed at raising awareness about global poverty, showing their commitment to social issues. Interestingly, their performance of 'Side' alongside a cover of the Bee Gees' 'Stayin' Alive' highlighted their versatility and crowd-pleasing style. It's fascinating how music can bring people together for such a significant message—Travis certainly embraced that spirit on this iconic day.
