The Fray: Live at USANA

Last night I headed out to USANA Amphitheatre in West Valley City with five friends to enjoy what would be a great concert by none other than The Fray. The night was particularly enjoyable because Matt returned yesterday from some six weeks in San Diego. But, anyways, The Fray. They are a great band with an incredible stage presence, utilizing simple light bulbs and camera work to create a very intimate atmosphere. The band leader, Isaac, started things off with the 2005 classic, "Over My Head", which had thousands of fans on their feet, singing along. As the night progressed, The Fray dove into their sentimental melodies with songs such as "How to Save a Life". After briefly leaving the stage, only to return for an encore, the band performed my personal favorite, a cover of Kanye West's "Heartless". This song was AMAZING, and I invite you to listen to it on my playlist located on the left side of the page. The concert reminded me of how much I love and enjoy music. Whether its thoughtful songs by the Fray & Death Cab for Cutie, electronic beats by Owl City (playlist) or Postal Service, or pump-up hip-hop by Kanye West, I love music!
