David Mason-Cox
If you're looking for an exciting act with an extensive repertoire, look no further: David Mason-Cox is once again taking the stage as a solo performer.
After years of singing and playing bass and guitar with his very popular band The Blarney Boys, Mason-Cox has returned to the immediacy of "Stand Up Solo".
Of a recent show, one Sydney reviewer wrote "He has the passion of Van Morrison and the vocal power of The Commitments' Andrew Strong. Whether singing his own fabulous songs or one of an incredibly varied selection of covers, Mason-Cox shines." (Allison O'Donoghue - The Drum Media)
Armed with only an acoustic guitar and his astonishingly strong voice, Mason-Cox is a one man powerhouse on stage. In his shows he radiates a rare and genuine warmth and has energy to burn. Indeed, his good humour is so infectious and his performances so well paced that he wins over even the most bashful of audiences.
David Mason-Cox is well known to Australian audiences. He has released three CDs since 1991, with his second album Tripping Upstairs playlisted on over eighty radio stations around the country and named Album Of The Week by several stations including Sydney's 2SM. He has also guested on a number of TV shows and was a regular on the popular It's Country Today.
On his latest EP Evangeline, Mason-Cox continues to explore his accessible mix of rootsy country rock and pop. The blend of sinuously clever songs once again demonstrates his originality, wit and integrity. Little wonder he delights programmers, critics and fans alike.
David Mason-Cox has a veritable treasure house of songs. His repertoire extends from folk and soul greats to country, pop and rock standards with a sprinkling of traditional Irish, reggae and blues classics...not to mention his own compelling originals.
In anyone's language David Mason-Cox is world class!
