Keane vs. Travis

Thanks to the Internet, I just heard a wonderful band named Keane (homepage here, and videos here.) Their style is piano-based melodic Brit-pop. They sound amazingly like Travis -- another favorite band -- including the singer's voice in particular.

UPDATE: Wouldn't you know, they've been touring together.

    Well, I was searching the two bands because I've been a huge Travis fan for years and when I heard Keane I thought the resemblance was way too close. Glad I'm not the only one who noticed...but sad that the likelyhood of them touring together here is slim to none...

  2. at least from wahat i hear, travis is the inspiration for bands like coldplay, keane, the fray, etc.

    you can definately hear travis' influence in all their music.
