Nashville-based singer-songwriter Kara Frazier is a rare artist who inhabits the space between eras. Originally from Jacksonville, FL, she has spent over a decade honing a sound that blends bluesy vocals with southern soul, pop, and Americana. The result is a discography that feels both classic and contemporary—heartfelt songs rooted in tradition but polished with a timeless, modern edge.

A rising force in Nashville’s independent scene, Frazier’s professional pedigree is marked by significant collaborations with blues legend Taj Mahal and Grammy-winning producer Shannon Sanders. She has shared bills with acclaimed artists such as Southern Avenue, Yola, and The Brook & The Bluff, and is a frequent face at iconic Nashville venues like Exit/In and The Basement East.

In 2025, Frazier was named Lightning 100’s “Artist of the Week,” leading to a featured performance on the Musicians Corner stage in Centennial Park for an audience of thousands. Whether leading a high-energy 6-piece band or performing in an intimate duo, her stage presence is built on the grit of modern soul and the rhythmic urgency of the blues. Currently rolling out her refined EP Coming Home and a highly anticipated collaboration with artist Kenny Sharp, Frazier brings a level of Nashville-bred musicianship and authentic soul that is perfectly suited for the iconic atmosphere of the SteelStacks.
