The Fray
February 20, Jack Singer Concert Hall, Calgary
Tickets on sale January 22nd on Ticketmaster or charge by phone 403-777-0000
The Denver-based group played to sold-out crowds around the world in support of 2005’s How to Save a Life (Epic/Sony), which went on to sell more than 3 million copies in the U.S. Melodically charged hits “Cable Car (Over My Head)” and the title track worked their way onto the radio and into the hearts of fans – not to mention onto the soundtrack of TV phenom “Grey’s Anatomy.” Throw in a trio of Grammy nominations, and you’ve got the kind of out-of-the-gate explosion that any young artist would envy.
The highly-anticipated second album, released in 2009, debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Top 200 chart. Three weeks after the release, The Fray were holding steady at the impressive #3 spot. The album's exciting debut is highlighted by the huge success of their first single, "You Found Me," which made its primetime debut in an exclusive video for ABC's hit show "Lost". Fueled by performances on the American Music Awards, Jimmy Kimmel Live and Good Morning America, the infectious single has already sold over a million copies.
