Multi-Platinum band The Fray is set to embark on a highly anticipated global tour to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their groundbreaking debut album, How to Save a Life.
How to Save a Life: The 20th Anniversary Tour will span 20 U.S. cities and 14 international stops, giving fans across the globe the chance to relive the music that defined a generation and has amassed over 12B total streams.
Released in 2005, How to Save a Life became a defining album of the 2000s, earning critical acclaim and producing chart-topping singles like “Over My Head (Cable Car)” and the 5X Platinum title track. Reaching the top spot on the Billboard 200 Chart, the album’s deeply personal lyrics and emotive sound resonated with fans worldwide, cementing The Fray as a household name. Two decades later, the music continues to inspire and connect generations.
“We wrote songs in our parents’ basements and our grandpa’s barn, dreaming of playing our music with the world one day. We never imagined that the songs from How to Save a Life would still hold new meaning 20 years later,” said lead vocalist Joe King. “It’s an incredible honor to celebrate the album’s 20th anniversary on tour this summer. We can’t wait to perform these songs and share their stories with you. Come sing with us—we’ll see you soon!”
The Fray, consisting of King, longtime guitarist Dave Welsh, and drummer Ben Wysocki, will kick off How to Save a Life: The 20th Anniversary Tour on July 25 in Dallas, TX. The tour will stop in major cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Nashville before concluding internationally in Dublin, Ireland on November 22. The Strike will support all U.S. dates, with Landon Barker joining select shows. International support will be announced soon.
The newly added dates are in addition to the previously announced stops on The Fray Is Back Tour, supporting their 6-song EP of the same name, released last fall. This includes their Top 30 single, “Time Well Wasted.” Listen The Fray is Back HERE
