We're thrilled to welcome one of Canada's accomplished and versatile double bassist, Fraser Hollins. He is also an educator, composer, and bandleader.
Hailed by legendary musician Don Thompson as "one of Canada's great bassists," Fraser has been a vital figure in the jazz world both in Montreal and New York City. His deep love for diverse musical cultures has shaped his unique style, allowing him to seamlessly blend genres and create music that is both imaginative and inspiring.
Critics have praised Fraser’s playing as "highly imaginative and creative spontaneous music making," while fellow musicians admire the "strong foundation" he brings as a rhythm section player, offering far more than just keeping the beat. He has performed around the world and appeared on over 30 recordings with bands featuring national and international artists and collaborations with jazz icons. Fraser’s musical journey has taken him across the globe—from Europe and Asia to South America and Africa.
Not only is Fraser an in-demand performer, but he's also a dedicated educator, having shared his expertise through clinics worldwide and as a faculty member at McGill University's Schulich School of Music since 2006. His passion for music and teaching shines through in every note he plays and every lesson he gives.
In this interview, we’ll dive deep into Fraser's career, his approach on music, and the stories behind his incredible journey. You won’t want to miss this fascinating conversation with one very creative and highly respected jazz musician who lives in Montreal!
