With origins lying somewhere in the minimalist folk pop scene, the latest release (Frameless single, April 6) sees an evolution into a more experimental pop direction whilst still maintaining a defining focus on strong lyricism and a heartfelt delivery.
Born and bred in Fremantle Western Australia, Travis made the move to Melbourne in 2011. Quickly establishing himself amongst the strong local scene of singer-songwriters, he made an impressive recording debut with the Open Up Slowly EP (released under the original moniker of Hudson). The first single Against The Grain became a viral sensation with a stop-motion, kaleidoscopic music video starring none other than coloured pencils, racking up close to two million plays on Youtube and Vimeo combined. This led to a plethora of sync opportunities and established a strong following on newly appearing streaming services such as Spotify.
His second EP, The Undertow, was released in 2013. Working with critically acclaimed local producer Nick Huggins, the five track ethereal folk-pop offering further cemented Travis’s place as an artist to watch. Stand out tracks Marble Streets and One & One earned favour with the tastemakers at Triple J, and found sync opportunities in overseas markets.
Inspired by the diverse and dynamic recordings of local producer, Pip Norman, Travis began collaborating with the multi-award winning artist in late 2013. Known for his work with Australian hip-hop pioneers TZU, Urthboy, blues and roots powerhouse Ash Grunwald, and Sparkadia, the combination of analog synths and electronic experimentation layered over a folk-pop foundation makes for a unique sound that has already piqued industry attention. Indulging his passion for music videos that push the traditional boundaries, the new single Frameless is set to launch with a clip starring a blue-furred, impressively-horned beast created by the Sharp FX team (The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings). Directed by the J-Award winning, ARIA nominated team of Darcy Prendergast and Andrew Goldsmith (OH YEAH WOW), the creature conveys the poignant lyrics via AUSLAN sign language, producing a visually striking and engaging clip that is set to impress.
