Travega: Solas Festival 2008

vid

 Travega are a band I caught at the Solas festival 2008, a highlight of the  festival.

 Travega’s recording debut came in the summer of 2005 as a 3 track E.P. produced by singer songwriter Declan O’Rourke and recorded by Robbie Sexton of "Blink". Sixteen months later, with a number of sell-out performances in Dublin including Whelans, The Village and Crawdaddy, Travega, now a sextet, released their debut single, "The People", in Ireland on 27th October 2006. The single entered the Irish charts at number 27 and remained there for a number of weeks. The promotion of the single was aided by live performances on Dublin’s 98FM, Spin 103.8FM, TG4, The City Channel, along with other regional radio stations around the counrty.
