The guitar found its way into Muddy Fraser's hands when he was 11 years old and living in Ottawa. Then Muddy found his way into the guitar, and the Vancouver Blues scene was all the richer for it.

At age 20, Muddy was playing in The Take It Easy Blues Band with the drummer from Howlin' Wolf's band, who hailed from Chicago. The other guitar player in that band, Jim Prophet, got Muddy into B.B. King's music and Chicago blue-style guitar, a la T-Bone Walker. Armed with that inspirational honing skills on guitar, blues harp and vocals, Muddy and his band toured Canada and the United States playing the coffeehouse and college circuit.

Currently, Muddy is busy fronting The Muddy Fraser Band, and bringing his own brand of soul satisfying blues to the Vancouver-area clubs. He also spends his time teaching and has recently been making inroads to the film industry, with appearances in several locally shot movies.
