Review for the John Frazier Band:
Steve Martin’s protégé, John Frazier, an A-Session musician’s musician, known for his brilliant mastery of the mandolin, guitar and the fiddle, and his Frazier Band, has audiences screaming for more during his 2016 tour for their new CD “Some People Change". Frazier hopes to make some real changes in the lives of children with disabilities as well too. John says that music in itself can be very healing and because he’s a father of two healthy children; his heart breaks for families in need of help, therefore, his tour will be about healing in many ways and he’s looking forward to donating proceeds from this tour to “The Children’s Miracle Network.”
The CD was produced at the famous Destiny Studios in East Nashville with some VIP performers making an appearance on it. His single “Chillin” is already creating a “buzz” within the record industry. John and his band will be shooting a new video this month premiering on YouTube.
John is by no means a stranger to success. He has toured and played with film and comedy legend Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers. During the tour, Frazier, Martin, and the Rangers co-wrote the song “Go Away, Stop, Turn Around, Come Back,” that Martin recorded on Rare Bird Alert; and also with John Cowan, Jim Lauderdale and bands, such as, Yonder Mountain String Band and Hit & Run. . He brings a powerful, eclectic history as an acoustic and bluegrass performer into his leadership of Frazier Band. Forever on the move to share his passion for music, John has performed at venues all across the U.S. and overseas from the Grande Ole Opry to The Kennedy Center, and at the Royal Festival Hall in London. He has also appeared on countless TV shows.
