Denver 4-piece The Fray are - without question - one of America’s biggest new bands and look set to explode over here. The critically acclaimed quartet have sold 1.5 million copies of their debut LP 'How To Save A Life' and had their rousing hit single 'Over My Head (Cable Car)' streamed more than 1 million times in just one month on MySpace. Now, with the new single 'How To Save A Life' all over Radio 1 eleven weeks upfront of it’s original release date – both the single and album of the same name have been brought forward for March 12th and February 19th respectively.
With a sold-out Borderline show under their belt, they've announced a 10-date UK tour as special guests to The Feeling, which includes a show in London on March 2nd. The full list of dates is listed overleaf. Together, Isaac Slade (lead vocals and piano), Joe King (guitar /vocals), Dave Welsh (guitar), and Ben Wysocki (drums and percussion) are destined for big things this side of the Atlantic.
Blending raw piano melodies into their own contagious brand of rock-steady sounds, The Fray's debut album is both instant and relentless. Written by the band, it boats 12 impressive tracks that speak for themselves. There's no clever marketing or catering to genres necessary, yet they've been streamed over 16 million times on MySpace, had more than 5 million views and close to 300,000 friends on the site.
