Steve Mason Birmingham + London Preview

Steve Mason’s 2013 record Monkey Minds In The Devil’s Time is possibly his best solo effort yet, and latest single Fire! is vintage stuff (watch the video above). We’ve got the man playing Electric Ballroom in London this Thursday, and then he plays for us again in Birmingham at at The Institute next Tuesday (5th). Take listen/look at some of our favourite Steve Mason moments below…

Beta Band classic, and a wonderfully geeky/referential video as well.

Another Steve Mason highlight under his King Biscuit Time moniker.
