Born and brocaded on Martha's Vineyard, Mason grew up with his parents' dearest of folk music. He loved it, besides, simply his stripling years brought Nirvana and Rage Against the Machine into his life tarradiddle. Mason found their political and social messages practically easier to identify with and before long combined folk's softer and light bringing with the revolutionary mental mental attitude of his novel heroes. Writing came easy now and the adolescent had batch of self-penned material ready when a family friend asked Mason to appear on his local tuner usher. As chance would take it, Sean Foley -- an associate of Conor Oberst and his band, Bright Eyes -- was driving through Cape Cod as Mason was on the air. Foley was beguiled by Mason's sung dynasty "Atomic number 8" and leftfield his telephone number at the radio station, setting off a chain of events that would have Oberst and Mason hanging knocked out, doing gigs together, and touring America.

That like year Mason assembled a band that included Nina Violet and cousin-german Zak Borden, and in 2007 his soph platter, If the Ocean Gets Rough, came kO'd.
