Fraser Young is a stand-up comedian with a style all his own. Although he started out in Toronto, he can now be seen headlining right across Canada, and as far away as Hong Kong.
After winning the prestigious Tim Sims Encouragement Fund, awarded to the best up and coming comic in Toronto that shows a creative and fresh approach to comedy, Fraser made several national television and radio appearances which include CBC Radio's Brave New Waves, Madly Off In All Directions, and Definitely Not The Opera. In addition, he starred in an episode of Comedy NOW!, his own comedy special, broadcast on CTV and The Comedy Network. Fraser has also appeared numerous times on MuchMoreMusic and is a regular on MuchMusic's Video On Trial.
In 2006, Fraser released his first comedy CD "Everyone Loves A Smug Bastard", and was invited to the Just For Laughs festival as the only Canadian in the New Faces showcase, featuring the top breakout talent from around the world.
Not your standard setup-punchline comedian, his act involves mixing unique observations into his eccentric, anecdotal comedy. With his distinctive voice, stage presence, and clever outlook, Fraser Young is a comedian you will not soon forget.

Solid stand-up from Canadian

Fraser Young is a quick shot comic with ascattered and eclectic approach. This somewhat California beach boy voice asks the audience pay close attention to get all the jokes.
His strength is comedy of the absurd and of exaggeration (a somewhat lost art) with a good dose of observational and autobiographical material. Fraser Young is a very audience friendly stand-up comic whose occasional use of the four letter word will only offend the most sensitive soul though a couple of the bits at the end of the CD are more for a mature (i.e. comedy) audience. Young does not break any new comedic ground but he is highly original and able to surprise even a veteran comedy fan like, for example, with the Jehovah Witness bit.
