About

David Mason is an English musician, singer, songwriter, and guitarist from Worcester, who first found fame with the rock band Traffic. In his long career, Mason has played and recorded with many of the era's most notable musicians including Jimi Hendrix, Michael Jackson, The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, George Harrison and Mama Cass Elliot. Mason's best known song is "Feelin' Alright" recorded by Traffic in 1968 and covered by dozens of artists, including Joe Cocker, who had a major hit with the song in 1969. For Traffic, he also wrote "Hole in My Shoe" a kind of psychedelic satire that became a classic in its own right. "We Just Disagree" Mason's 1977 solo hit written by Jim Krueger, has become a staple of Oldies and Adult Contemporary radio playlists.

    At 70, Dave still has it...

    by ndconcerts on 1/11/17Talking Stick Resort - Scottsdale

    This was my third time seeing Dave Mason. I've been in love with this man's voice and songwriting skills ever since I first heard "We Just Disagree" when it was released as a single in 1977. This concert was the first time I ever saw him do a full set, with his own band. This current tour features Mason giving a full performance of his 1970 debut "Alone Together", with a few Traffic songs tossed in. It was not a greatest-hits show, which seemed to disappoint some of the people near where I sat, in a booth in the back of the room (note to potential ticket buyers at this venue: avoid the rear booths. I couldn't see anything but the video monitors on each side of the stage, and I'm 6'5). I really didn't mind, because I like all of Dave's work, and not just the hits. He was in great voice, his vocals sounding clear as a bell. What surprised me was Dave's humor--he talked a bit about songs, shared stories about his friendships with Jimi Hendrix and George Harrison, and made those of us along for the ride laugh quite a bit. But the music was center-stage. I was really floored by Dave's lead guitar skills, particularly on a re-imagining of Traffic's post-Dave song "The Low Spark of High-Heeled Boys". It was some of the most powerful lead guitar work I'd heard in years; I would compare Mason to David Gilmour, whose concert at the Hollywood Bowl in 2016 was really strat-ospheric (sorry, I couldn't resist the pun). I knew that Mason was a great guitar player, just not THAT great. It was quite a revelation! While the show clocked in at around the ninety-minute mark, I never found my attention wandering, even despite my poor seat. I also paid for the pre-show meet-n-greet, which meant that another fan and myself got to witness Dave's soundcheck from the front row, were given a folder of collectables (laminate, cd's, 8 x 10 photo), meet him onstage afterwards, get a few things signed, plus a photo taken with him. While I was a bit surprised that Dave wasn't Mr. Personality during this, he wasn't dismissive either. I rarely go for VIP packages, because they tend to cost far too much--but Dave's thankfully was just $125 (not including the ticket to the show). If you're as big a fan of this man as I am, you could do worse for an evening of great music performed brilliantly.

    Canyon Club revamped

    by cwsilver on 12/6/16The Canyon - Agoura Hills

    The Canyon club has undergone a change. The Club has better food, improved service and still great sound. Dave Mason has a great band and played a fine set. Alvino Bennett, his drummer was great. Dave delivers !!!!!!!!!!!

    Dave Mason- still incredible rocker!

    by LORIguitar on 12/6/16The Canyon - Agoura Hills

    Over time, the music still has the soulful rock as when you first heard it, but now, its grown even better with the personal input, less "production" ... and more Dave!!! He's so unique, a talent so special! I'd go again to see Dave every day if I could!

    Dave Mason - Trooper and Treasure

    by C1Day1 on 11/19/16Birchmere - Alexandria

    Despite battling a cold, Dave Mason and his excellent band put on a memorable show that featured the landmark 1970 album "Alone Together" played in it's entirety plus an array of Traffic and Dave's solo works. Once his voice warmed up partway through thi first song, it was vintage, classic and special. The guitar work should not be missed. Lots to be learned from Dave by the current generation. The evening was finished perfectly with "All Along the Watchtower" (Dave played on the Hendrix recording). Go, see him. Thanks for reading.

    David always comes through strong!

    by afterbyrner on 11/15/16Scottish Rite Auditorium - Collingswood

    David Mason is one of the originals, straight out of the sixties with Traffic and then his classic album "Alone Together". Dave's band, with drums, guitar and keys is just fantastic. The Dave Mason Band never disappoints, true professionals laying it all out there.

    Dave Mason still rocks

    by JerseyShoreLo on 11/14/16Scottish Rite Auditorium - Collingswood

    Bought the tickets to this show as a birthday present to myself. First time at the Scottish Rite Auditorium in Collingswood, NJ. The site lines were terrific, the seats left a lot to be desired if you were over 5 feet tall, this is my only quibble. The sound was great. Mason & his band did a phenomenal job playing the Alone Together songs, then later mixing in some other tunes.

    Great! As always

    by PAS622 on 11/14/16Scottish Rite Auditorium - Collingswood

    We have seen Dave Mason several times over the past few years at local venues. He always put on a great show and his music never gets tired. His stories from yesteryear are wonderful and at 70 years old, hes still rocking! Hope he continues to tour !

    A little disappointing

    by GobillyGoop on 11/14/16Scottish Rite Auditorium - Collingswood

    I enjoyed the music from a nostalgia point. The stage was bare and it looked like a garage band setup.He sent the band out by themselves to do a warmup? They were choppy and at times off key. He and his band have been much better even great in the past performances at the Scottish Rite. I loved Dave for decades and thought he was a fantastic and important song writer and poet. Dave's musical lyrics helped me and my friends thru some tough times as we grew up. You shouldn't have took more than you gave and just the pace of the game will drive you insane so relax and let it all flow, were comforting and great mantras growing up. Dave's songs and guitar were some of my favorites growing up and still are today. He did play longer than the last time he dropped by the SR (45 mins. last time ) But Dave is getting old and grouchy. He reprimanded the crowd more than once for not getting up and dancing. Your fans are a few years older but will still dance when the music rocks them. Just visit a Springsteen concert and check out the same (maybe a little larger) crowd Good music makes you dance like children Dave, not grumpy old men.

    Such a great show!!!!

    by Sheri25 on 11/9/16Blue Ocean Music Hall - Salisbury

    Dave sounded fabulous. His guitar skills floored me. He was warm and friendly. Loved hearing his stories. I highly recommend seeing him. The band is great too. So fun to revisit the 70s. I felt like a kid again.

    Dave Mason - great show!

    by shawnybird on 11/9/16Blue Ocean Music Hall - Salisbury

    Dave Mason and band were great. In addition to doing his entire first album of songs, he did a nice variety of other favorites. Blue Ocean Music Hall is a great place to see a show - not a bad seat in the place.

    See this show!!

    by Anonymous on 11/9/16Blue Ocean Music Hall - Salisbury

    Saw Dave in 1976 and he sounds as great now as he did then. Thoroughly enjoyed his performance and his excellent band as well. He engaged the audience and was warm and approachable. He met with fans after the show and signed items. A real class act

    Bramlett a No Show

    by SilverElephant on 11/9/16Blue Ocean Music Hall - Salisbury

    Only half of the promoted acts showed up! I bought tickets specifically to see both of the performers -- Dave Mason, and Bekka Bramlett, the daughter of Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett with whom Dave toured in the early 1970s. I saw Delaney & Bonnie & Friends at the Hynes Auditorium in 1972 -- featuring Eric Clapton, Dave Mason....Bonnie remains the best female singer I've ever heard....so you can imagine how eager I was to hear Bonnie. Her no show was announced at the venue! No offer to redeem part of the ticket price. Will not want to attend another show at Blue Ocean Music Hall, that's for sure!

    Simply Awesome

    by LordT on 11/9/16Blue Ocean Music Hall - Salisbury

    The show was fantastic. My first show ever where the artist played an entire album. Dave hasn't lost a step, he only gets better.
