Fran Healy

The Travis frontman talks to BBC Radio Derby's Shane O'Connor about the band's new album.

Dubbed one of the most gifted songwriters of his generation, Travis frontman Fran Healy is busy promoting the band's new album.

Born in Stafford but raised in Glasgow, Healy has been speaking to BBC Radio Derby's Shane O'Connor about 'The Boy With No Name', the band's fifth studio album.

Fran said: "It's a far more relaxed, positive album. We've put some tracks on our MySpace site and the people who've listened to it have reacted positively to it."

The video for the new single 'Closer' features a cameo from actor Ben Stiller and Fran says the band will be hitting the road soon.

He said: "We'll be playing just about everywhere so keep an eye out for the dates. We're looking forward to getting back on tour."
