The Fray's forthcoming eponymous album will be released Feb. 13 via Epic, and the band recently released the track list. According to Nielsen SoundScan, the album's lead single “You Found Me,” which was written by singer Isaac Slade and confronts the question of why bad things happen to good people, has already sold 278,000 copies in just three weeks of its U.S. digital release. “Enough for Now” is autobiographical, as it was written after the death of Slade's grandfather. Slade told http://Billboard.com that the album, produced like their debut by Epic VP of A&R Mike Flynn and Aaron Johnson, is “a little more extreme than the last record. The quieter stuff is a little quieter than our last record and the rock stuff is a little rockier. It definitely spreads the spectrum a little bit.”

Beginning Jan. 6 in the Fray's hometown of Denver, the band will let fans get a preview of their upcoming self-titled record with a handful of club performances. The mini tour will conclude Feb. 4 in New York and the last performance will be cybercast on the Fray's website. An extensive North American tour is rumored to begin in June, so check out http://www.stubhub.com/the-fray-tickets for The Fray tickets.

The Fray formed in 2002 in Denver when former schoolmates Isaac Slade (vocalist/pianist) and Joe King (guitarist) reconnected at a local music store and began jamming together. Guitarist David Welsh and drummer Ben Wysocki joined the lineup and so did Slade's younger brother Caleb, who left the band due to a brotherly spat. The fight inspired the band's first single, “Over My Head (Cable Car),” and in 2002 the Fray released their debut EP Movement. The Reason EP followed in 2003 and Denver's KTLC radio station took notice and started playing the band's music. Epic Records signed the band in 2004, after Denver's alternative music publication Westworld named the Fray “Best New Band,” and then they hit the road alongside Ben Folds and Weezer. After the title track for the Fray's debut album, How to Save a Life, appeared on ABC's Grey's Anatomy, the album went double-platinum and was named the best-selling digital album of all time. The Fray then released the live effort Live at the Electric Factory digitally and in select stores in 2006 and hit the road again, re-releasing the Reason EP while on tour.

The track listing for The Fray is “Syndicate,” “Absolute,” “You Found Me,” “Say When,” “Never Say Never,” “Where the Story Ends,” “Enough for Now,” “Ungodly Hour,” “We Build Then We Break” and “Happiness.” “You Found Me” appeared during a commercial break from the Nov. 20 episode of Grey's Anatomy as part of a one-minute promo for the upcoming season of Lost. ABC is also in talks with the band about using their music on their sister channel ESPN at the height of football season. Epic's VP of marketing Lee Stimmel said of the Fray's TV partnership, “Because this band appeals to everyone from 8 to 80, television really does play a great role in exposing the music to a wider audience. And the band writes amazing songs that work with a picture.”
