Artist Bio
Based in Dallas-Fort Worth, Mason Adams Project is a 5-piece genre-bending band — dubbed “hillbilly-hippie funk” by Michael LaCroix of DentonRadio — performing songs composed by the band’s founder, Mason Adams. Their sound explores a rich blend of Americana, folk, and rock, infused with authentic Texas twang.
Mason grew up in Bonham with a guitarist dad; Mason was a published poet by age 10 and began writing his own music in his teen years. By 2017, Mason Adams Project, the full band, was born.
What began as Mason’s idea to perform with rotating musicians resulted in a full-time five-man band that, over the next six years, went on to perform scores of shows across North Texas, record five EPs and a full album, and develop a welcoming and diverse community of fans.
Through growth and good measure, Mason Adams Project has evolved sonically, welcoming new members in late 2023: guitarist Brian Cox, Andrew Robin on fiddle, bassist Jon Green, and drummer Todd Jackson. All together, the members of MAP boast nearly 100 years of experience performing on stages across Texas.
Excited for 2024, MAP is eager to perform at more venues, support national touring acts, and partner with festivals and private events around the region.
