Kyle Meredith with... Fran Healy (Travis)

Travis’ Fran Healy on Los Angeles, Gaslighting, & The Brilliance of The Man Who
Travis’s Fran Healy joins Kyle Meredith to talk about the Scottish band’s album, L.A. Times. The frontman takes us how and why Los Angeles ended up as the overlying theme in the LP, especially as he calls it the coal miner’s canary for the world at the moment,” as well as the amount of cursing in the title tracks and how the artwork finishes a series present within their albums The Man Who, The Invisible Band, and The Boy With No Name. Healy also digs into the culture of gaslighting as heard in the record’s first single and how people are at their worst on social media, as well as the chances they took in their songwriting on their early albums, how The Man Who foresaw the oncoming softer side of brit pop, and a conversation with Sandy Shaw about how giant pop artists manipulate the market.
