The Trio Brian Fraser - guitars, vocals, stompboard Mick Reid - harmonica, percussion, vocals Benny Owen - percussion, didgeridoo, vocals
The Brian Fraser Trio has just released its debut CD, Passing The Time. The 14-track CD, released through Black Market Music, has nine Brian Fraser originals and five cover songs from the live show.
Brian Fraser's song writing and finger-picking guitar-playing talents, combined with his gruff vocal style and entertaining showmanship, have been acclaimed around the country. With three solo albums and years of constant touring, he has built a reputation as one of Australia's finest acoustic blues performers.
In 2004, Brian performed a few shows with harp player Mick Reid and percussionist Benny Owen and the collaboration was so successful that it has evolved into The Brian Fraser Trio.
With many successful tours up and down Australia's East coast, the Trio brings a fresh approach to the blues, with three-part vocals, driving rhythms, wailing harp and Fraser's finger-picking; the act is in constant demand around the country.
As well as shows in pubs and clubs all over the country, The Trio has, in its short life, made appearances at the Broadbeach Blues Festival (QLD), The Australian Blues Festival (NSW) and The Gympie Muster (QLD). The Trio will also be appearing at The Bridgetown Festival (W.A.) in November, The Australian Blues Festival (Goulburn, NSW) in February 2006 and The Bluestone Festival (VIC) on New Year's Eve.
