New Travis single

Scottish soft-rockers Travis have a new 3-track single, the J. Smith EP, available online now. I got my copy at their website (it comes in digital or 10-inch vinyl), though it is also available on iTunes. Based on an initial listen, "J. Smith" is a bold attempt in a new direction, "Get Up" wasn't that great, and "Sarah" was a typical beautiful Travis ballad.

As their 1997 classic is the namesake for this here blog, I figured I should give 'em a little love.

The three tracks are a taster for a full album to follow this fall. Travis are playing European and Asian festivals this summer.
