  • The Fray Hit the Big Screen in NCM's Firstlook
    January 16, 2014 The Fray Hit The Big Screen In NCM's FirstLook First Band to be Integrated into NCM Media Networks' Movie Pre-Show Experience CENTENNIAL, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- NCM Media Networks, the top national cinema network in the U.S., is bringing critically acclaimed Denver-based foursome The Fray to the big screen as the first featured artist in NCM's FirstLook pre-show program. The Fray's latest single, "Love Don't Die," will be integrated throughout NCM's FirstLook in AMC, Cinemark, Regal Entertainment Group and other top movie theaters nationwide, generating excitement for the band's highly anticipated new album. Helios, the fourth album from The Fray, will be released February 25 on Epic Records. "Love Don't Die" has already received early critical acclaim from the Denver Post as well as Billboard hailing its "bare emotion bolstered by echoing backing vocals and unexpected twang." Pre-order for the album is available now at http://smarturl.it/helios. "We've always had a real connection to movies because we tend to think of our music as a soundtrack that creates an emotional connection with our audiences. Music is such a powerful sensory experience, and it's cool to be reaching people in a new way," said Isaac Slade with The Fray. In addition to the band being the first-ever featured musical artist in FirstLook, The Fray will also be performing a special invitation-only concert at the Sundance Film Festival for NCM Media Networks' clients and guests. "FirstLook has always been about bringing movie audiences the best in entertainment, so incorporating the music of The Fray into our pre-show is a great new direction for us," said Cliff Marks, president of sales & marketing with NCM Media Networks.

  • TO PERFORM at CHUMASH CASINO RESORT SANTA YNEZ, CA – June 19, 2019 – the Fray, the Alternative Rock Band That Achieved Comme
    Contact: Caitlyn Baker [email protected] (805) 944-7780 (c) (805) 350-7913 (o) ALTERNATIVE ROCK GROUP THE FRAY TO PERFORM AT CHUMASH CASINO RESORT SANTA YNEZ, CA – June 19, 2019 – The Fray, the alternative rock band that achieved commercial success with the release of their debut album, “How to Save a Life,” is coming to the Chumash Casino Resort’s Samala Showroom at 8 p.m. on Friday, July 19, 2019. Tickets for the show are $69, $74, $79, $89 & $99. Not only did the band rise to fame with a Double Platinum debut album here in the U.S., but the album was also certified Platinum in the U.K., Australia, Canada and New Zealand. The Denver-based band formed when former schoolmates Isaac Slade (vocals, piano) and Joe King (guitar, vocals) unexpectedly bumped into each other at a local music store. The pair began a series of two-man jam sessions and soon expanded their lineup with two of Slade's former bandmates. In 2002, the band released the EP, “Movement,” earning them the support of Denver’s KTCL radio station, which was followed up with the release of the EP “Reason” a year later. This increased airplay caught the attention of Epic Records, with whom they signed with in December 2004. The band achieved commercial success with their first single, “Over My Head (Cable Car),” which quickly became a Top 10 hit in the U.S. Their second single, “How to Save a Life,” charted at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S.
