John Frazier is originally from Shreveport, La. He started playing saxophone at the tender age of six having no idea that it would ever turn
into a ministry. At that same age he accepted Christ as his Savior during a Revival at his church. Combining the love of Jesus and this talent
that he was unaware of would soon change his life in unexpecting ways. John was a home schooled student for most all of his schooling, so it
left him plenty of time to perfect his musical abilities in a way that would be pleasing to Christ. During his Senior year, he was sponsored by
Allen Swilley as a private student to tryout for the All District Honor Band in Louisiana. He made the band which also made it possible for him
to try out for the Louisiana All State Band. John not only passed the tryouts for All State Band ( which he is only the second Home School
student to do so in Louisiana), he made it on Alto, Tenor AND Baritone saxophones! Of course, having a love for the lower sounding
instruments, he played Baritone for the concert. John also performed on Tenor sax with Mike Williams (lead trumpet, Count Basie Orchestra)
and Gary Hallquist (Saxophonist) in the All City Jazz Band under the direction of Bill Causey Jr. John has performed over the past 10 years with
the Shreveport Metropolitan Concert Band on Sopranino, Soprano, Alto and Baritone saxophones, Eb clarinet, Bb clarinet, and bass clarinet.
During the winter of 2000, John started and was a part of a saxophone quartet (The Saxy Guys) consisting of saxophonists from the
Shreveport Metro Band. The quartet would go on to perform at many festivals, malls, retirement centers, churches, and just about any other
venue you could think of. John left the group last year in order to further pursue his solo gospel ministry.
Throughout the years of playing music, John would occasionally perform at his church for different events. John knew that he wanted to
make a ministry out of his music the very first time he was asked to perform at another church and he realized how many hearts he could
reach out to. This new feeling, this joy in his heart has led him all over the U.S. spreading God's word through testimony, song, and a little bit
of laughter. Being under the influence of many different Jazz saxophonists and having such a great love for Gospel music, John plays the best
of both worlds in order to create an incredible worship experience. Even though there aren't any words to John's music, you will still recognize
most of the tunes. If you listen really close, you'll hear John sing, even weep through his instrument. Music is a key aspect instilled in us which
can glorify our Creator. In music we move our hearts and spirits to glorify God whether there are words to it or not. God has blessed us with music as a way to pray without words.John is available and willing to travel in order to share God's word in any way he can. SG ministries is completely faith based, so there's nothing in the way of hearing God's word though one of the most beautiful instruments in history. Hope to see you soon!
Thanks for stopping by. God Bless....
Much Love!
John Frazier

"its like living through a puzzle where the defense becomes the inquiry and the accouterment of ones occupation is expedient to knowledge...
...a photograph taken by your brain and developed in your mind a maze of complexity to find and define each and every one of a kind a word paints a thousand minds darkness all around but like the stars we shine...
...disillusioned conscious state crushing the dreams that don't exist my spirit lifted lifes disease hope contemplates a wish...
...sit by the campfires that brightly burn listen to the crickets that sing in turn contemplate existence for thoughts to unlearn teach others for yourself to discern finding strength is born of failure giving not to seek return maybe love is just given maybe also it is something you earn...
...and we dance underneath the canopy of stars for love is who and what we are and although our dance is oh so brief... love is forever and time a thief." ~cleveland NAMASTE'
