Pop/rock trio, The Fray release new single, “Don’t Look Down” off their upcoming EP The Fray Is Back, out September 27.
Co-written and co-produced by the 4x Grammy nominated band, the song is a study in facing one’s fears and embracing uncertainty. Vocalist/guitarist and primary songwriter Joe King takes over lead vocal duties alongside longtime guitarist Dave Welsh and drummer Ben Wysocki, and welcoming Grant Averill on acoustic guitar alongside Kai Welsh on synthesizer, co-produced by Joe London.
The Fray Is Back is the band’s first multi-song release since their 2014 album Helios. The collection and upcoming US headline tour (see below for dates) mark the start of a new era for the Colorado-bred band.
The new EP – Co-produced by The Fray alongside Andrew DeRoberts (Fitz and the Tantrums, Zac Brown Band), Ryan Linvill (Conan Gray, Chappell Roan), and Joe London (Thomas Rhett, Bailey Zimmerman) – marks the first time that King, the band’s longtime main songwriter, has sung lead for his own deeply introspective lyrics.
