Travis Garland – Believe – American Idol Top 3

Travis Garland premiered his debut single, the Danja- produced “Believe” on American Idol Top 3 night on May 19, 2010. The debut album will be released on Interscope later this year.

The 20-year-old singer is from Lubbock, Texas who Perez Hilton discovered on MySpace.

Garland is no stranger to the fame game: by the age of 17, he’d already joined the boy band Not Like Them (NLT), singed a major label deal with Geffen Records Chairman Ron Fair, toured with the Pussycat Dolls, and recorded a single with Timbaland. But the band was dropped before ever releasing an album, and Garland languished in Interscope’s “artist purgatory.”

Hilton discovered Garland online and was eager to help revive the singer’s career. “I think he’s a great singer and a great dancer,” Hilton says, “and hot and young. But he’s a gifted songwriter too. I am involved on the management side and I’m involved on the label side. So I’m fully involved in him and fully believe in him.”
