Biography

Writing well beyond her years, Mason Ashley puts pen to paper to masterfully craft lyrics that tell a timeless story, designs a melody that captures raw emotion, and then sings with an enchanting voice that lulls the listener to another time and place. At just seventeen years old, she is at the start of a blossoming career with a maturity of sound and emotion well beyond her years.

Music has been in her blood since birth. Mason could hear a song on the radio, march her seven year old self into the house, sit down at the up-right piano inherited from her great, great grandparents, and begin to play the song she had just heard. She had an ear for music and could play nearly anything she picked up. After piano, came the guitar. Her grandfather was throwing away an old Conn, she saw it in the trash, and was mortified at the injustice of throwing away a piece of art. After rescuing it, she began to play, but something else happened. That old throw-away guitar thrust her into a whole new world of songwriting at the tender age of nine.

Into The Song is the first release from Mason.

“This record is for that nine year old girl on her bedroom floor writing way too many songs in the key of G. It's for the thirteen year old that thought she knew what love was. For the beautiful moments that you wish could last for more than just a moment.”

“[Mason] shows not only a lyrical but also a musical maturity unheard of among her peers.... Yet despite having a wise-beyond-her-years sensibility, there remains an innocence to Mason’s songwriting and delivery that is beautiful and pure.”
