Travis have amassed a number of hits in the United Kingdom, including "Driftwood", "Sing", "Turn", "Side", and "Why Does It Always Rain on Me?". They made headlines on both sides of the Atlantic in 2000 when performing a cover of Britney Spears' single "...Baby One More Time" live at the Glastonbury Festival. The song is featured as a B-side on their single "Turn" as they did with many other songs they recorded. In fact there are more B-side tracks than there are album tracks, up to the point that Travis usually issue two CDs for each single, each issue including different B-side tracks.

The band are particularly notable in that even at the height of their fame, much of the public were unaware of the band's members (many members of the public believed that Travis was the name of the lead singer), despite knowing many of their songs. This reflects the band's feeling that they are less important than their music, and was the rationale behind the naming of their third album, The Invisible Band. Even on the cover photograph the band is barely visible standing between high trees and bushes.

Travis在英国已经推出了多首流行歌曲，包括《Driftwood》、《Sing》、《Turn》、《Side》和《Why Does It Always Rain on Me?》。2000年，他们在Glastonbury音乐节上翻唱Britney Spears的《Baby One More Time》，在大西洋两岸都成为报刊杂志的头条。正如其他很多他们录制的歌曲一样，这首歌原本在其单曲《Turn》的唱片中被列为B-side作品（不太重要的作品）。实际上，Travis的B-side曲目比其打榜歌曲还要多。到目前位置，Travis通常会为每首单曲出版两张唱片，而每张唱片中都包含不同的B-side曲目。

这个乐队尤为著名的是，虽然他们享有很高的名气，大部分的公众也都了解他们的许多歌曲，但他们却不清楚乐队的成员（许多人都以为Travis是乐队主场的名字）。这反映了乐队的一种感觉――他们的音乐比起他们本身更为重要。这也成了他们第三张唱片取名依据――The Invisible Band。即使是在唱片封面照中，乐队也在高大的树木和灌木丛中若隐若现。
