The Fillmore had a triple billing Saturday night with some new to the scene and some taking a victory lap with a debut album released twenty years before.

Cassandra Coleman started off the evening, singing in front of a full crowd that arrived early for the sold-out show. From the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in rural Tennessee, Coleman said it was her second show on the tour. She is so new to the music scene that she only played one of her songs, “Chameleon” once before in front of a crowd. Still, there were no nerves and quite a voice that got the crowd to participate with “Maggie.”

Coleman is currently working with Warner Bros., and she finished her set with “Coming of Age” which seemed fitting considering she was just bartending six months before.

The Strike was up next, and it was apparent by the first song there were many fans in the crowd.

We last saw The Strike at First Ave in July, 2024, writing, “Singer Chris Crabb was especially excited, often pointing to the crowd, as they danced and clapped to their music. Based on the strong support for the band, they’ll probably come back sooner rather than later.”

It didn’t take long for them to return, supporting A Dream Through Open Eyes, an album recorded in Minneapolis and produced by John Fields who we saw last month playing the keys and rocking the cowbell at The Honeydogs release party at the Green Room.

For a band that formed in Utah in 2014, there are a lot of Eighties vibes flowing through their music. It’s not by accident. Crabb, has professed a love of Steve Perry and John Waite, and David Maemone on guitar and keys has counted Toto, Genesis and Foreigner as influences. There were plenty of saxophone solos throughout the set with a Miami/Gloria Esteven spirit in songs like “Painkillers” and “Just Like Paradise.” (They even did a nice cover of The Outfield’s “Your Love”.)

“Nothing New” was a fun song and had a feel of a band incorporating the feel-good vibes of a prior decade in their own voice. It definitely got a roar of approval from the crowd.

The Fray had a seamless entrance, as they stepped onto the stage with The Beatles “Here Comes the Sun” reverberating into their first song “She Is.” Then something funny happened when lead singer, Joe King, tried to introduce the background of “Look After You”, but was instead overtaken by the crowd who proceeded to sing the first verse.

And that set the tenor of the evening as fans came to sing to The Fray’s debut album, How To Save A Life, as if it was the soundtrack to their lives some twenty years before. But there must be some carryover into the decades for a lot of the fans were far too young to be singing along in 2005. In fact, the song “How To Save a Life” recently reached rarefied air by claiming Diamond status.

King told the crowd that they would play every song from their debut album and by the time they got to their first hit song “Over My Head (Cable Car)” it was a sing along throughout the rest of the evening. King even took a moment during “Hurricane” to toss roses into the crowd and encouraged everyone to “Don’t Stop Dreaming” when they played the Cranberries cover.

And to put a nice bow on an evening filled with great music and positive messages, The Fray invited their opening acts onto the stage to cover Hank William’s “I Saw the Light.”
