The face of a renowned Camden shop who “transformed” the lives of local musicians has died from a stroke aged 66.
Dot Fraser, who ran Dots Music Shop in St Pancras Way, was a professional musician and teacher who worked at primary schools in Hampstead and Kentish Town.
Described as a “one-off”, tributes have been paid to her generosity, gratitude and sense of humour – and her “huge” presence at the heart of local music.
Dot, a singer, performer and instrumentalist who studied at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama, opened her Kentish Town shop in the 1990s with her husband Noel.
