The Fray is the second studio album by American alternative rock band the Fray. Released on February 3, 2009, through Epic Records,^[1] the album debuted at number-one on the Billboard 200 chart, and became a top 5 hit in Australia and Canada.

The album was preceded by the single "You Found Me," which charted in the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached the number-one spot in Australia. The second single from the album, "Never Say Never," was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals in 2010.^[2] "Never Say Never" was also included on Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen – The Album.

Critical reception was mixed, and less positive than the band's debut album, How to Save a Life, with critics pointing out that the album was too similar to its predecessor.
