MAKE WAY FOR THE FRAY >>
By Mark Bonifacio

10/22/2006 - It's been a whirlwind couple of years for The Fray, the Denver-based quartet whose earnest and melodic songs have been striking a huge chord with audiences.



The first single from their debut album How To Save A Life, "Over My Head (Cable Car)" climbed into the top 10 on the Billboard singles chart, has been certified platinum, and was streamed more than a million times on MySpace in just one month. Here in the Philippines, the song reached #1 on radio stations Jam 88.3, 97.1 WLSFM and K-Lite 103.5 and stayed for 40 straight weeks at 103.5 KLite's chart- a record-breaking feat! Same goes for the title track that recently peaked at 97.1 WLSFM and 103.5 K-Lite and is currently included at the top 10 of stations Jam 88.3, Magic 89.9 and RX 93.1.

Formed in 2002 by Isaac Slade (vocals, piano) and Joe King (guitar, vocals), The Fray owe all of their early success to their organic, grassroots beginnings. Joe and Isaac were former schoolmates who bumped into each other unexpectedly, and - one thing led to another - they started writing songs together. The songs were catchy enough to attract two of Slade's former bandmates - drummer Ben Wysocki and guitarist Dave Welsh - who soon joined, completing the band's lineup.

The Fray garnered an early following through impressive area gigs and the support of local radio, which led to a listener-driven campaign to get the band a record contract. With strong word-of-mouth, the band won "Best New Band" honors from Denver's Westword magazine and got substantial airplay on two of Denver's top rock stations - the demo version of "Over My Head (Cable Car)" became KTCL's top 30 most played song of 2004 in just 4 months. And the listener campaign worked: the band signed to Epic Records in 2004. Fittingly, instead of closing the deal in an office or hotel room, they signed on the dotted line onstage at the Fox Theatre in Boulder, Colorado.

They are one of the most licensed bands of 2006, with their music being featured on Scrubs, Grey's Anatomy, What About Brian, NCIS, One Tree Hill and Bones

How To Save A Life is now out in CDs at leading record stores under Sony BMG Music Entertainment.

Love the album! Yeah, Grey's Anatomy boosted the popularity of the single How to Save a Life, but I think even without it being used in the show, the song will still be a hit. Galing!
