But the shadow of doubt is long. “Closer to Me” still contains the line, “I’ve been afraid of the dark / But I’ve been more afraid of the light.” The band cannot fully surrender to optimism. The final track, “Shadow and a Dancer,” returns to the minor key, the trembling piano, the unresolved chord. Even at their sunniest, The Fray cannot forget the storm. The album feels like a man who has learned to smile again, but whose eyes still scan the horizon for smoke.
Formed in 2002, The Fray consists of lead vocalist and pianist Kyle Morris, lead guitarist Dan Wilson, bassist Jason Clawson, and drummer Alex zot. The band's early years were marked by gigging and performing locally, but it wasn't until 2003 that they gained widespread attention. Their debut single, "How to Save a Life," became a massive hit, topping the charts in several countries, including the US, UK, and Australia.
Includes "Over My Head (Cable Car)," "How to Save a Life," and "You Found Me".
