    Artist description
    Dave Mason's career spans over 25 years and has encompassed producing, performing and song writing.At age 18, the Worcester, England native was one of the founding members of the group Traffic. While with Traffic, and only 19 years old, Mason penned the song "Feelin' Alright." This song has since become a rock and roll anthem having been recorded by well over 300 artists. The group's profound influence over rock music remains unquestioned even today.Mason departed from the group after their second album.In 1969 Dave headed for the USA to pursue a solo career. He struck gold with the album "Alone Together" (considered a rock classic.) This was followed by three albums for CBS/Sony "Dave Mason," "Let It Flow," and "Mariposa De Oro," all of which received gold albums. "Let It Flow" contained the classic "We Just Disagree," a top-ten single! In addition to performing to sold-out audiences, Mason performed on a number of albums such as The Rolling Stones' "Beggar's Banquet," George Harrison's "All Things Must Pass," Paul McCartney's "Listen To What The Man Said" and Jimi Hendrix's "Electric Ladyland." One of the songs from the "Ladyland" album, "All Along The Watchtower," featured Dave playing guitar. This song, written by Bob Dylan, remains a big favorite in Dave's live show! In October of 1993, Dave Mason formally joined the legendary group Fleetwood Mac and spent two years touring with them around the world. The band completed an album for Warner Brothers called"Time," which was released in October 1995, and featues Dave's lead vocals on songs including "Blow By Blow" and "I Wonder Why." In 1996 Dave returned to touring with his own band which included former Three Dog Night bassist Rich Campbell, who continues to work with Dave as his webmaster. In 1998, he toured with Traffic band-mate Jim Capaldi, and now in 2000 is performing as The Dave Mason Band throughout North America.
