THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND
Often described as "the most famous artist you've never heard of," Brent Frazier is truly a legend in his own right. Chances are if you've turned up the radio a time or two, you've either heard lyrics he's penned, licks he's hit, his versatile vocal abilities, or his unmatched studio creativity in the production capacity. If you've watched television, you've seen him or you have heard his work. If you were a fan of rock n' roll in the 80s you've seen him on Headbangers Ball. You also would know he was an artist on LA based New Renaissance Records, the label created by Ann Boleyn, the powerhouse lead singer of Hellion. The band he was the guitar virtuoso of, Wilder, saw incredible commercial success and was nominated for several prestigious awards. Brent has also been a featured guitarist in worldwide documentaries and has produced voiceovers for television. Just to think that all of this began for him on a church pew as a three year old "strumming" a hymn book. He then got a guitar and by age 9, started his first band as a live musician. By age 12, he became a touring musician and life in the music business has not slowed down one bit.
Currently, Brent performs around 150 shows annually both on national and local scales. He also owns a commercial recording studio and a professional audio installation business. A man of many talents, Brent is a luthier by trade and by heart. As the chief technical luthier of Conklin Guitars in the 1980s and 1990s, Brent was privileged to be the protege of the late Bill Conklin. The art of guitar craftsmanship is something that Brent enjoys in his spare time and it runs deep in his blood. His number one true love, however, is being a touring musician. It is his desire to return to touring and he is currently searching for just the right band to collaborate with. He is headlining his own band, however, he misses the brotherhood and kinship that is often found while being on tour with peers.
