Harriet Fraser, originally from Norwich, England, grew up centered around music, playing several instruments, as well as participating in school choir. While music was her passion, she pursued a career in medicine, graduating from Medical School and practicing medicine for several years in London and Oxford. During this time, she continued to pursue her passion for music, training as a classical soprano, performing solo concerts in Europe and China, and eventually relocating to California in 2008 to pursue music full-time.  In 2021, collaborating remotely with Grammy-nominated producer, Dana Nielsen, and renowned arranger, Shawn Kirchner, Fraser recorded her debut a cappella album, PEACE, described by The Recorded A Cappella Review Board as, “simply outstanding.”

The production by Fraser and Dana Nielsen is simply stellar. Harriet Fraser's voice comes out crystal clear. Overtones feel warm and produce an angelic-like aura around just about every song.

People who work or study to chill music ... might take a break from lo-fi beats and instead put on calming choral music. The songs can set the mood for someone seeking tranquility or peace, as background music or with the listener's full attention” - Dan Fister

MUSIC AS MEDICINE

Fraser is a former Family Doctor in the UK, who while practicing medicine, simultaneously found music success singing on a global scale. She currently sings with the prominent Los Angeles Master Chorale. Alongside renowned composer and arranger Shawn Kirchner, as well as Grammy-nominated producer, mixer Dana Nielsen, Fraser created a record embracing traditional classic songs from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, enhanced by her rich and calming voice. 

Singing to her children was a significant part of Fraser’s inspiration for Peace, as her quest to comfort her children during the pandemic became the impetus for the album. Fraser realized that her singing helped ease the stress and anxieties building around her loved ones and wanted to share that same peace and comfort with the world. Despite the anguish many endured, whether it be personal or global, Harriet remains steadfast in her belief in the power of music to uplift, inspire, or just sing us to sleep when times are tough. 

“This album came straight out of the pandemic. I saw fear, sadness, and anxiety right in my own home and knew that this was magnified literally all over the world. It felt like a moment to create something that could combine both my professions.” stated Fraser. “Amidst the chaos of the last year, I wanted to create an album of healing – music that, I hope, creates a sense of calm and peace.”
