Willy Mason - Restless Fugitive











Restless Fugitive http://vimeo.com/54027727  is a track Willy Mason is giving away to celebrate the completion of his third studio album, Carry On.  It is a wonderfully atmospheric piece that's perfect for chilling to on a Friday (as I am and as it is right now).  In fact by the end of the  6:18min playing time, you may not want to do anything else at all - except chill some more.  Which is fine of course. 

So what can I tell you about Willy Mason?  He was born in New York and his parents are both folk singers.  This album heralds a return to the music business after a break of five years and has been produced by Dan Carey (Hot Chip, MIA).  Having been likened to Bob Dylan when he first emerged on the music scene, Mason admits that he likes the idea of being an old guy with stories to tell and claims his 5 years away have been spent hunting down stories.  Earlier this year he supported Ben Howard and says he enjoys the UK and promises to return around March 2013.
