Allan Hugh Fraser (born 21 July 1948 in St. Stephen, New Brunswick) is a Canadian folk musician and songwriter. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, he was part of Fraser & DeBolt (along with Daisy DeBolt), and released two albums with Columbia Records. Many artists have recorded his songs, including John Oates, The Duhks, Cassell Webb, Cal Hand with Leo Kottke, Tom Russell, and Penny Lang.

He has lived in Montreal since 1994 with the artist Donna Louthood, until her death in 2011, with whom he had three grown children: folk singer Kaya Fraser, Jade Fraser, and Simon Fraser.
