Fraser Campbell will be in concert Aug. 22 .

Juno-nominated recording artist and producer Fraser Campbell will be in concert Aug. 22 at Summerside Church of the Nazarene. Hailing from Victoria, B.C., Fraser’s music is dynamic and creative and his live performanc­es are full of undeniable passion, pounding energy, musical ingenuity and sincere honesty. Stylistica­lly, his electric/rock/dance sounds are consistent­ly pulling audiences out of their seats. In addition, Campbell’s Celtic roots always seem to surface and provide his performanc­es with an organic richness. “My musical influences are diverse,” says Campbell, “including everything from Delirious, Jimmy Eat World and DC Talk, to Psalty and Peter, Paul and Mary.” Several significan­t miles mark Campbell’s musical journey. In 2010, he released his first fulllength worship album entitled “We Love You.” Blending electric, edgy pop-anthems with intimate songs of assurance and hope, “We Love You” focuses on God’s love for His children and their love for Him in return. The album has earned glowing reviews and its songs have received strong airplay on Christian radio and satellite stations nationally and internatio­nally. His songs are also being used by worship, youth and young adult ministries throughout North America. In 2012, Campbell was presented a Covenant Award by the Canadian Gospel Music Associatio­n for his work in producing and recording the compilatio­n album, “Worship Victoria.” He brought together worship leaders from Victoria churches to record an album that would promote unity within the church of Victoria and raise funds for youth at risk. Campbell also has the ability to reach and communicat­e with youth and draw them to new places of freedom in worship. He is highly sought-after by conference organizers and youth ministry leaders across Canada. He has a strong desire to see youth and young adults understand God’s love and experience the gift of worship. Along with being an awardwinni­ng recording artist Campbell is also an award-winning producer. He has been nominated multiple times for Producer of the Year at the GMAs. The Aug. 22 show in Summerside starts at 7 p.m. Admission is free but a goodwill offering will be taken.
