Travis Garland (born July 26, 1989) is an American singer and dancer. He is best known as the lead singer of the boy band NLT which consisted of Kevin McHale, Justin Joseph "JJ" Thorne and V Sevani. They were discovered by Chris Stokes and signed to his TUG Entertainment-label in 2006. In May 2009, Garland confirmed on his Myspace page that the group had split. Garland is now working on a solo career.
A few years later, NLT was signed to a major label deal working under the direction of Geffen Records Chairman Ron Fair. With Garland as the frontman and one of the lead singers, NLT was put in the studio to collaborate with top producers and songwriters including Pharrell, Ne-Yo and Ryan Tedder. The group opened on tour for The Pussycat Dolls and gained a small, but loyal, fan following. In 2007 NLT released their Timbaland-produced single "She Said, I Said (Time We Let Go)" and scored their first Top 40 Hit. They continued to tour, and caused a female fan girl frenzy headlining a national House of Blues tour aptly titled "The 2009 Bandemonium Tour" along with V Factory and Menudo. When the group eventually parted ways to pursue individual opportunities Garland shifted his focus back to songwriting, only this time for a solo album.
Currently, Garland is back in the studio recording his as-yet-untitled debut album for Interscope Records under the familiar direction of Fair. To give him a unique urban pop sound, producer Nate "Danja" Hills (Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado, Britney Spears) has signed on to produce the record. Garland will be writing and co-writing the majority of the album's tracks himself. Garland's debut album is scheduled for release later this year with "Believe" as the first single. Recently Travis stated on his Twitter account that there's a song called "Uncomplicated" that will be on the album as well.
Garland premiered his debut single, the Danja produced "Believe" on American Idol on May 19, 2010 which was on the same day as Justin Bieber's American Idol performance. The single was released on iTunes the day before, and his debut album will be released on Interscope later this year.
On June 11, 2010, Garland released a cover of the song titled "Airplanes" by B.O.B featuring Hayley Williams on youtube, which he dedicated to a fan who had lost her sister to cancer; a free download link was provided on Perez Hilton's website.
Travis released a five track 'mixtape' called "The Last Man Standing" on January 11, 2011 through his official website.
