Frazier Chorus is an English group formed in 1986 and composed of Tim Freeman, Kate Holmes, Chris Taplin and Michele Allardyce. A group whose very peculiarity was that he did not use guitars, basses, or percussions, which were predominant instruments at that time.
They released their first single "Sloppy heart" in 1987, a single that will go relatively unnoticed. It was only a year later in 1988 that they experienced their first major success with the track "Dream Kitchen", single from the album "Sue" which was released a year later in 1989.
Also in 1989, and taken from the same album, two singles "Typical" and once again "Sloppy heart" were released, which did less well than their predecessor but still achieved good sales scores.
The change of decade will be particularly favorable to them when the single "Cloud 8" was released in 1990, a single which will remain as the biggest success of their entire discography. Followed by a few "Nothing", another single which was released the same year and which also made a good run in the charts.
The album "Ray" from which the 2 tracks were taken was released a year later in 1991. Album with significant success and which produced a 3rd hit the same year with the title "Walking on air".
A last album "Awake" was released in 1995 but without meeting the same level of success as its predecessors.
