The incomparable Garrett Mason makes a return visit to St Andrews and Ministers Island after 4 years. A Juno Award winning blues guitarist Mason has developed a unique and unforgettable style. He has been described as an enigma, one of Canada’s most under rated performers and the real deal by critics and commentators across the country. He has wowed audiences from coast to coast and maintains a busy schedule without having a manager, a website, a publicist or an agent.
Garrett Mason is a true bluesman at heart. He was raised in Truro, Nova Scotia by his mother Pam, and father, veteran Canadian Bluesman Dutch Mason. His quest to become a blues musician started at a very early age; being surrounded by music blues music, Garrett’s favorite tapes at 3 years old were Canned Heat and Buddy Rich. However, the seed was planted after watching a video of Stevie Ray Vaughn “Live At the El Mocambo”!
Garrett would be the first to tell you that riding the coat tails of others won’t take you very far in this business, but striving to be truly original is the secret to longevity and lasting success. He continues to sell out venues and festival stages across the county with a sound and presence that is one of a kind!
