Mason Oakes

Midwestern indie-folk has sprouted new roots in singer/songwriter Mason Oakes, whose grounded, soothing style entangles layers of vocal harmonies and fingerpicked acoustic guitars. Oakes’ sobering lyrics of everyday heartaches and joy transform the simplicity of life into stirring daydreams of what lies ahead. Previous collaborations include with fellow Wisconsin singer/songwriter, Suzi Lindner, and renowned audio engineer, Tucker Martine (The Decemberists, Sufjan Stevens, Gregory Alan Isakov).
