THE FRAY HEADLINES A HOST OF MODERN MUSIC ACTS COMING TO SENECA NIAGARA CASINO & HOTEL THIS FALL SALAMANCA, N.Y. – Piano-rock band The Fray is just one of many modern acts recently announced for the musical lineup this fall at Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel in Niagara Falls, N.Y. The Denver-based foursome will play the 2,400-seat Seneca Niagara Events Center on Friday, October 25 – the same day that love-ballad extraordinaire Richard Marx performs in the nearby Bear’s Den Showroom. Marx is one of seven recently announced acts this fall at the 440-seat venue, along with other modern-era bands such as Gin Blossoms, Smash Mouth and a rare mid-week, two-night performance by one of Canada’s most-loved Celtic rock bands, Great Big Sea, just before the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday. The Fray come to Seneca Niagara Events Center on Friday, October 25 for an 8 p.m. performance, just on the heels of releasing a fourth studio album. The band’s sound is driven Issac Slade’s lead vocals and piano playing, while drummer Ben Wysocki and guitarists Joe King and Dave Welsh round out the melodies. The Fray burst onto the music scene in 2005 with the double-platinum debut album “How to Save a Life,” which featured the hit title track as well as “(Cable Car) Over My Head” and “Look After You.” In 2009, The Fray’s self-titled second album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard charts and went on to reach gold status behind the hits “You Found Me” and “Never Say Never.” Tickets to see the live performance in Niagara Falls start at $55 and go on sale Tuesday, September 3, at noon. - more -
