Emily's Albums A to Z

Listened: Thursday June 3

Fran and Andy are two guys from Travis, one of my favorite bands. Chronological Acoustical Journey is acoustic versions of their greatest hits, with assorted anecdotes told extremely endearingly by Fran. These include the horrors of a small Scottish man trying to rap, poor naming conventions of Scottish small towns, heterosexual man-crushes on Jake Gyllenhaal – the list goes on – all told with a very cute Scottish accent.

Through a scheduling cock-up (as a Scot might say) I missed the live tour when they came to town, so I’m glad they released this album, though the hilarity of it makes me even more sad I missed it!
