I can be serious, but I really must learn to pose properly for the camera :-o

Overview

On solo violin, I play pop/love/rock/country/swing tunes for your wedding, funerals, or bar mitzvah. The good news is I can play whatever you want, by ear; the bad news is I do NOT play classical, because I don't read.

For a bigger budget and fuller sound, I also have many band projects, including gypsy jazz, bluegrass, cajun, country. Ping me. I also play mandolin and pedal steel where appropriate.

Lovely performance.

Unfortunately my grandmother died and we had to have a Covid safe celebration of life in these most trying of times. Bo was early for the gig, prepared, ready to go with the flow and able to think on his feet as we had to improvise. The music was beautiful. He had great song suggestions for us. Highly recommend.

Hired as: Fiddler

About

“Smokin’ Bo” Frazer came to Florida’s Space Coast in 1990 and began playing the fiddle at the Diamond Horseshoe Revue in Disney’s Magic Kingdom, and also in the Cheyenne Saloon at Church Street Station.

Originally from Philadelphia, Bo played bluegrass music on two Lewis Brothers albums. He moved to New Mexico in the 80's, where he played Western swing with The Desperados. Currently Bo plays swing with Take the Hay Train, gypsy jazz with Swing Boutique, contradance music with the Rafter Ringers, Cajun/Zydeco with the Porch Dogs, and strolling cowboy music with the Rodeo Rhythm Kings. Occasionally Bo plays services at Unity or Unitarian churches.

Bo has previously played The Honky Tonk Angels, A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline, Always... Patsy Cline, Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, and Lost Highway, on fiddle, mandolin, pedal steel, guitar, and/or singing harmony.
