Travis Collins has long led the charge in the Australian country music fold with his soulful voice, earthy sound, and unique gift for piloting both sophisticated, heartfelt ballads and supercharged country-rock floor-fillers.
Since bursting onto the scene with 'Start the Car' in 2005, Collins has fast established himself as a leading light in Australian song. Nine studio albums later and Collins is a regular mainstage fixture at Australia's peak country music festivals from Tamworth Country Music Festival to CMC Rocks, and routinely plays to sold-out crowds across the country. With seven Golden Guitar Awards under his belt, in 2020 the release of subsequent outing 'Wreck Me' marked a personal milestone for Collins, taking out the #1 spot on the ARIA Country Albums Chart, debuting in the Top 10 of the ARIA Albums Chart, and landing at #4 on the iTunes Australian Albums Chart. Wreck Me also landed Collins his second ARIA Awards nomination for Best Country Album, his 8th Golden Guitar Award, and spawned the earthy Wreck Me: Acoustic Sessions.
Recent years have seen Collins expanding his sound, songs, and live shows, still further promising even bigger, better, and brighter things ahead ‚ both onstage and in the studio. You won't want to miss Travis Collins live and free at Groundwater CMF this October 2022!
