A seasoned singer-songwriter, Matt's rise to stardom has been a remarkable journey filled with triumphs and trials, but his unwavering passion for country music has always been at the forefront. Born and raised in Fairland, Matt's journey began at Triton Central High School in Shelby County, Indiana. Surrounded by the sounds of traditional country music, he felt the pull of the genre from an early age. It was at eleven years old that Matt first picked up a guitar, setting in motion a lifelong dream of making music his profession. His destiny became clear during his teenage years when, at just sixteen, he had the honor of opening for the legendary Charlie Daniels in western Massachusetts. Eager to chase his dreams, Matt wasted no time after graduating from high school in 2004. In a bold move, he packed his bags and made the pilgrimage to Nashville, Tennessee. Within three weeks of his arrival, he was already making a name for himself as a sought-after session musician and gracing live stages with his music. In 2006, the world was introduced to Matt Mason through the hit show, "Nashville Star," where he showcased his incredible talents and finished fourth. However, this period in his life was marked by a struggle with alcohol and drug addiction, which he courageously overcame. Matt's resilience and determination eventually led him to the crowning moment of his career when he emerged as the winner of CMT's "Next Superstar" in 2011. Following his victory on "Next Superstar," Matt Mason signed with Warner Records, a momentous milestone in his career. While anticipating the creation and release of a major-label album, he continued to tour and share his passion for music with fans. In 2012, he gifted the world with his EP, "America's Favorite Pastime," a glimpse into the immense talent and potential that lay ahead. In 2016, Matt made the bold decision to go fully independent, an admirable step that allowed him to explore his creative freedom while nurturing his growing family. After nearly a decade away from the spotlight, Matt Mason is set to make a triumphant return in 2024, armed with new music and a story that inspires us all. Matt Mason's journey is a testament to the resilience and unwavering spirit of a true country music artist. His talent, determination, and genuine love for the genre have set him on an extraordinary path that continues to captivate audiences, making him a cherished figure in the world of country music. Get ready for what's to come as Matt Mason's story is far from over. •• LUKE FOX •• A purest at heart and cut from the clothe of the troubadours and balladeers we all know and love, Luke Fox has been working hard through the years to carve out his own unique sound while passing down the line songs of old and taking pride in shedding light on the new.. with just his guitar, a voice filled with all the character you’d imagine an old crooning storyteller might have, a harmonica, and kick drum. Luke, in vivid imagery, paints landscapes where devils and angels roam and collide. Drawing from personal heartache and triumph, he’s been known to get the feet moving and the tears flowing. He’s a true original. Powerful, yet visibly vulnerable with each performance, he cares deeply about music and it shows. Seeing him LIVE is the best way to really get to witness his unique brand of folk, country, rock, and Americana. ___________________________ ADD ON OPTIONS (does not include tickets for the show) A limited amount of reserved tables are offered for this event if you'd like to ensure that you have seats.
