She began piano lessons at seven and composing at 12. Influences include James Taylor, Carole King, Joni Mitchell and Paula Cole. Her debut album, What To Do With Daylight, released in 2003 lead to her 2004 tour with John Mayer and David Bowie and went eight times platinum in New Zealand. She titled her second album Albertine after a Rwandan orphan she befriended during a trip to Rwanda in 2005. This album reached #5 of the iTunes US album chart after being featured in the Editor's Choice section. Flags followed in 2010, marking Fraser's first album as a new L.A. resident and earning her first number one single with the peppy "Something In The Water." With the album and single receiving plaudits all around, the following year Fraser cleaned up at the 2011 New Zealand Music Awards, taking gongs for Album of the Year, Best Pop Album, Single of the Year, Best Female Artist, and the People's Choice Award. Returning to the studio in 2014 — after 18 months of writing in various locations — Fraser set about recording her fourth album, with David Kosten co-producing. Recorded at his West London studio, with orchestral work being done at the legendary Abbey Road, the release saw Fraser opting for a more experimental sound than that of her previous releases. Brutal Romantic was released in late 2014.

LYRICS

In me, in you
Orphans, kingdoms
Wide eyes and paper crowns
Time will hold us,
Time eroders
We're wrinkling chilling out

We are wondering where the wild wind blows
We are happy here 'cause the wild wind knows
What we are
Orphans, kingdoms

In me, in you
Things explorers
Named with codes of arms
A world inside us
A feast, a harvest
Each of us slum a star

We are wondering where the wild wind blows
We are happy here 'cause the wild wind knows
What we are
Orphans, kingdoms

Eat and drink, for tomorrow we die
We will look our waker in the eye
Raise a flag and then drink to your health
Who is he that can comfort himself?

We are wondering where the wild wind blows
We are happy here 'cause the wild wind knows
What we are
Orphans, kingdoms
