MUMBAI: Fresh from the recent release of his latest EP on Solardo’s Sola imprint, Mancunian producer Mason Maynard has announced his upcoming tour of Australia and New Zealand, playing 7 dates down under this Autumn.
Kicking things off in Brisbane on 7 September, Mason – who performed to an enthusiastic crowd of 15,000 at Park life this year – will also play dates across Sydney, Perth and Melbourne, before heading East to round the tour off in New Zealand . Bringing his beats to Vinyl Underground in Queens town and Christ church venue Wiggie Bagoes, Mason will end the tour at Auckland’s Av Night club on 22 September.
Still only 22 years of age, Mason has built up a growing army of support since being named as the One To Watch by BBC Radio 1’s Monki, with Danny Howard regularly spinning Mason’s tracks on his Friday night show. The move led to Danny snapping up Mason’s huge track Puffy to his Nothing Else Matters label, with the track amassing over two million streams so far.
