Travis wows TRNSMT crowd as surprise act in Hangout tent

Glasgow’s Travis was revealed as the second surprise act of the day at TRNSMT and had music fans flocking to the festival’s newest stage.

Hundreds of fans quickly flocked to the Hangout tent as the boys appeared in the festival’s first over-18s slot and, after a few minor technical issues, quickly drowned out the chants of “Here We F***ing Go” with their first song, Sing.

And the fans sang along, switching to classics with Driftwood, sending everyone on the intimate stage into a frenzy.

And referring to her now-famous flaming orange hair, Fran joked: “Yeah, I had a lot to drink, bru.”

Thunderous applause greeted them as they launched into Circle and Turn, to which Fran shouted that it was “F***ing Great”, which everyone was singing along to every lyric, with bassist Dougie even taking the lead.

The crowd was singing the lyrics to Flowers in the Window before the boys even did, and when they finished with chants of “Travis! Travis!”, they revealed that the next song was new.

Gas Light was a feel-good song that kept the love bubbling, before Fran revealed that today marks the release of her 10th release, LA Times.

And with a rousing rendition of “Why Does It Always Rain On Me,” the crowd was pumped up as Travis asked everyone to “do the Pogo” on the final chorus.

In a blistering show, the Glasgow veterans showed some of today’s younger bands how to rock a crowd.

You can buy the new album now on the official website.
