American piano-driven rock band formed in Denver (2002). Broke through with the single "How to Save a Life" and subsequent radio success.

Formed in Denver, Colorado in 2002. Lead singer and pianist Isaac Slade is prominently mentioned in contemporary reviews. The band's breakthrough single "How to Save a Life" received widespread exposure through TV placement (notably Grey's Anatomy).

Three DeBaser reviews (2007–2011) give a mixed view: strong radio singles and piano-driven melodies, but recurring criticism of monotony and excessive sweetness. Notable tracks discussed include "How To Save A Life", "Over My Head (Cable Car)", and "You Found Me".

For:Listeners of piano-driven pop-rock, fans of radio-friendly ballads, readers of album reviews

 An ultra-radio-friendly and catchy album, this "How To Save A Life" is poised to sell a good amount of copies, so the boys will have another chance to be appreciated more; something they haven't fully achieved until now, due to a debut album that is boring, quite flat, but at times perhaps enjoyable.

 Before their debut made famous by "Grey's Anatomy," The Fray had already taken their first steps in the music industry, also gaining some fame in their home country.

 I admit it, even I, at the time, was annoyed by the first single from this album (You Found Me) as it was played on almost every radio station at almost every hour.
