Mura Masa In Concert
British electro producer Alex Crossan has skyrocketed to fame since debuting in 2014 with the mixtape Soundtrack to a Death. In 2015, he released his breakthrough single, the flitting collaboration with fellow Brit Nao, called "Firefly." As Mura Masa, the Guernsey-raised producer-songwriter and jack-of-all-trades has become well-known for his blending of genres and ability to work with artists from all over the pop spectrum — in addition to Nao, he's worked with English pop futurist Charli XCX, style-forward New York MC A$AP Rocky, and French movement specialist Christine and the Queens.
Mura Masa's 2016 collaboration with A$AP Rocky on "Love$ick" earned him a nomination in Britain's songwriting-minded Ivor Novello Awards for Best Contemporary Song. In 2017, Mura Masa released his self-titled debut album, a wide-ranging take on 21st-century pop where crunkmaster Lil Jon and Piero Piccioni's exotica classic "Tahiti" exist on the same plane, with stars like Britpop elder statesman Damon Albarn and Brooklyn rapper Desiigner helping him fill out his vision. It earned 2018 Grammy nominations, including one for Best Dance/Electronic Album. Masa has done extensive remix and production work for artists all over the pop spectrum, including disco legends Chic and pop superstar Ed Sheeran; his rework of Haim's 2017 track "Something to Tell You" notched him a 2019 Grammy nomination for Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical.
While many of the big-name collaborators don't tour with him, Masa keeps the energy high at his live shows, precisely calibrating his music so that it takes the crowd on a journey through a wide spectrum of moods, as well as sounds sourced from all over the globe. In 2018, he's been releasing new singles — including a reunion with his "Firefly" collaborator Nao, the retro-minded, snaky "Complicated" — in the run-up to his next album.
I spent my Wednesday night at the Fox Theater, which I have been to many times. This show was especially enjoyable because the crowd was fun and laid back, and it wasn't as crowded as it usually is. We stayed for the entire show and the encore, which was even more lively than the beginning of the show.
If you like Mura Masa's albums, you will LOVE his live show. He plays piano, guitar, and drums, even that sings a few songs at this live shows. This was the second time I saw him live and it was even better than the first time I saw him. He really brings the crowd to life. His fan following is legit, as everyone knows the words and loudly sings along. He has a co-singer, Bonzai with him at his shows who is a great singer. I can't recommend his shows enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
