In this week's omnibus edition Vernon Kay welcomes singer-songwriter and Travis frontman Fran Healy to Tracks of My Years.

Travis have twice been awarded British Album Of The Year at The BRIT Awards, and are credited as having paved the way for post-Britpop British bands such as Coldplay and Keane. But It was their breakthrough second album β€œThe Man Who” that made them one of the most listened-to bands in the world, featuring tracks "Writing to Reach You", "Driftwood", "Turn" and their anthemic "Why Does It Always Rain on Me?"

They’ve just reached the top five with their new album, β€œL.A. Times” and they begin their UK tour in December. Before that we can look forward to seeing them perform at Radio 2 in the Park in Preston on the 7th September.
