It’s been 20 years since How to Save a Life first captured hearts around the world, and to celebrate, The Fray are hitting the road for a special anniversary tour. Spanning from March through November, the tour will take the band across the U.S. and Europe, with select shows featuring support from The Strike and/or Landon Barker.
Released in 2005, How to Save a Life became one of the most defining albums of the 2000s. With deeply personal songwriting and unforgettable melodies, the record delivered hits like “Over My Head (Cable Car)” and the 5X Platinum title track. The album’s emotional depth and universal themes propelled it to number one on the Billboard 200, solidifying The Fray’s place in music history.
Reflecting on the milestone, vocalist Joe King shared: “We wrote these songs in our parents’ basements and our grandpa’s barn, dreaming of sharing our music with the world. We never imagined that How to Save a Life would still hold new meaning 20 years later. It’s an incredible honor to celebrate this album on tour, and we can’t wait to perform these songs and share their stories with you. Come sing with us — we’ll see you soon!”
