Today we’d like to introduce you to John Frazer.
Hi John, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I always liked singing, drums came naturally, and I love songs with relatable lyrics
I lost my drums in a day of stupidity. When my sister’s murdered fiancés brother got a harmonica, I borrowed it and was able to get some cool sounds from it.
I had to get more drums and tried playing them together.
I worked as a mobile DJ for a while, but it was not satisfying- even though I incorporated live music into the show.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
I was banned from one club due to it being run by an egomaniacal liar.
I was fired from my day job after defending myself from a coworker.
There are people that will never like you in this life. I have been fortunate in that respect. Most people do like me AFAIK.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I love when I get an idea for a new song- either original material or a cool arrangement/ mashup what sets me apart is my harmonica skills
Any advice for finding a mentor or networking in general?
