SOHO JAZZ FESTIVAL 2025 PRESENTS:

Fraser Smith Quartet at Archer Street

Fraser Smith, a London-based saxophonist and vocalist, brings his distinctive blend of bebop and swing to Archer Street Soho for the Soho Jazz Festival 2025. A graduate of both the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama and Trinity College of Music, Fraser has established himself as a prominent figure on the UK jazz scene. His performances are characterized by a deep respect for jazz traditions, drawing inspiration from tenor legends such as Lester Young, Dexter Gordon, and Hank Mobley. Fraser's latest release, Lifeline! (2025), showcases his commitment to the hard-bop genre, featuring a collection of ballads, burners, and swingers that highlight his technical prowess and emotive playing. At Archer Street, audiences can expect an intimate evening of dynamic improvisation and heartfelt melodies, delivered with Fraser's signature style and passion for the jazz idiom.
