Since the early 1980s, Fraser Union has been singing and playing music that connects with BC audiences, especially those who love to join in on their choruses! Their songs come from folk roots reflecting the diversity of our cultures and histories and our contemporary concerns. Their repertoire draws heavily from Canadian sources, including their own original songs, chosen carefully to tell stories of people's struggles and triumphs and to share the love of music sung in harmony.
Fraser Union is currently Roger Holdstock, Barry Truter, and Kathy Griffin. Barry plays guitar, octave mandolin, and several other instruments. Roger plays mandolin and guitar. Kathy, the most recent member of the group, has vast experience singing in many vocal groups, including the award-winning quartet Second Inversion. She also plays guitar and percussion.
Now into their fourth decade, Fraser Union has five albums of songs, many of which have become anthemic to their audiences. They have evolved over the years but remain focused on the songs and the joys of singing together with vocal arrangements and harmonies that shine!
