Travis Recruits Demetri Martin For 'Selfish Jean'

I haven't seen this much symbolic t-shirt doffing since Michael Stipe's infamous MTV Music Awards acceptance speech from the early 90s. Below is the brand new clip for Travis' 'Selfish Jean'. It's a one-taker with comedian Demetri Martin as the star. In the clip, he removes over thirty t-shirts, each complete with an emotion, lyric or general inspiring message to accompany the transition of the tune. Genius.


Travis' new LP, The Boy With No Name, is in stores today (yesterday, for you UKers).

Wonderful! Love Demetri Martin, and god how I've missed Travis. After however many years, the original voice of that sound that has become so watered down (i.e.: Keane, Snow Patrol, etal) is back to show us how it's done! Nice little "A Town Called Malice"-homage of a song. Can't wait to hear the record.
