Sir Paul McCartney makes a guest appearance on Travis frontman Fran Healy's debut solo album.

The former Beatle plays the bass on 'As It Comes', which is one of ten songs on 'Wreckorder'. Healy repaid Sir Paul by turning vegetarian.

The album is due to be released on October 4 on the singer's own record label, wreckordLABEL.

It was recorded in Berlin, New York and Vermont, and also includes a guest appearance from US singer Neko Case.

Other songs titles include first single 'Buttercups', 'Sing Me To Sleep' and 'Moonshine'.
