RIP Muddy Fraser


Sad news today indeed. One of the staples of the Vancouver Blues scene has passed away.

I owe a lot to Muddy, he was one of our earliest supporters. He gave us our own special version of Christmas In Vancouver for the very first Very Vancouver Christmas album. And in doing that he gave me hope that our little project could work.

Even though he was sometimes swallowed up by depression, he would always re-emerge, sense of humour intact, and holy cow he made me laugh.

He will be missed by so many.

Finally at peace, or as Marko says: Blues musician's never die – they just move on to the next gig.
