Travis Agnew

Travis Agnew is a serious Americana innovator whose new album Under the Sun explores setbacks and successes as reflected by an old, well-traveled soul. His edgy folk rock combines the social resolve of Utah Phillips with a Steve Earle outlaw-outlook.

Madison native Travis Agnew has lived all over the United States and has traveled the globe gathering a flood of experiences. From the sun and surf of Florida to the mountainous landscape of Colorado his music is as diverse as his travels. His styles range from alt. country, folk, rock, indie, blues and reggae.
Travis writes gritty songs with passion and energy that wrestle with brokenness, love and forgiveness. He is engaging for audiences of all ages and backgrounds. His 2011 album entitled “fragile” recorded with his band, The Tin Roof Sparrow swells with three part harmonies and alt. folk rock delights. In 2015 Travis traveled to Nashville to record the ep entitled “dry bones and tumbleweeds” and played all the instruments like a kid in a candy store. Dry bones encompassed an early version of his Wilco sounding song entitled “Two” which will be brought to new life on his upcoming release full with fiddles and lap steel guitar. Songs that move the human heart and make you feel things, that’s the aim of Travis Agnew’s music and that’s what you can expect.
