Fraser Anderson shares tales of human vulnerability and connection that take folk music to a realm cinematic in reach and vision.

Combining painted narratives, unique acoustic tunings, and tender falsetto, Fraser’s passion for design is woven throughout his music.

Fraser’s debut album, “and the Girl with the Strawberry…”, which received critical acclaim in 2003, was recorded in a friend’s bedroom between a mattress and a wall. His second album, “Coming Up For Air,” was also well-received, with BBC R2’s Bob Harris calling it “truly beautiful” in 2006.

After moving to rural France and performing at local village concerts, he released his third studio album, “Little Glass Box,” in 2010, featuring Danny Thompson on double bass.
