American singer-songwriter known for intimate, acoustic folk recordings; acclaimed early album Where The Humans Eat and later If The Ocean Gets Rough are highlighted in DeBaser reviews.

Reviews note that Radiohead noticed him and took him on tour (mentioned in a DeBaser review). Reviews also describe home-style recording (recorded in a shed with his brother and friends) and occasional "house" or apartment shows (home tours).

Two enthusiastic DeBaser reviews praise Willy Mason's intimate, acoustic folk style and strong songwriting. Reviewers compare him to Nick Drake and Woody Guthrie and highlight the albums Where The Humans Eat and If The Ocean Gets Rough. Both reviews emphasise raw, home-recorded authenticity and a compelling vocal delivery.

For:Listeners of intimate acoustic folk and singer-songwriter music (fans of Nick Drake, Woody Guthrie, stripped-down storytelling).

 A delicate and perfect intersection between country and folk, between the melancholy of one’s own land and a traveling spirit, "Where The Humans Eat" is one of the most beautiful albums of recent years, almost entirely based on the sound of an acoustic guitar.

 Willy Mason has just released "If The Ocean Gets Rough" and my instinct led me to buy it.
