Following the release of the stunning animated video for \u2018A Ghost\u2019, frontman Fran Healy returns to the director\u2019s chair with the video for Travis\u2019 new track, \u2018Valentine\u2019. The track is the third to be taken from their eagerly anticipated new album, \u201910 Songs\u2019, which will be released on October 9th on BMG.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The striking video is directed by Fran and shot by Newton Thomas Segal, with lighting design by Queens Of The Stone Age\u2019s lighting technician, Gigi Pedron, in Aspect Lighting\u2019s car park in LA.<\/p>\n

Fran said of the video conception,<\/p>\n

\n

“The idea came from the lyric, “If I lie here, I might die here, I may lay here for a while.” I saw me lying on the ground for the duration using our drone to look down on me and maybe have stuff happen while I lay there.\u201d He continues, \u201cIt expanded from here to have lights and a second camera. Again, Covid-19 made this a tricky shoot and not being able to shoot with the band meant getting stunt doubles in who I’ve dressed as ghosts and now in this, they look like urban guerrillas with their balaclavas, shades and black clothes!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
