In between dates on his band’s current tour (which will be making its Denver stop next weekend at the Mile High Music Festival), Fray singer/guitarist Joe King found some time to hit to hit the studio with Kris Allen, the winner of last season’s American Idol, to record an as-yet-titled song for the latter’s debut platter.
