Willy Mason (born 21 November 1984) is an American singer-songwriter. He is the son of Jemima James and Michael Mason, both folk singers who, according to Mason, have influenced his music. When Mason was five, he and his family moved from New York to West Tisbury, Massachusetts on the island of Martha’s Vineyard. He attended West Tisbury Elementary School and Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School, where he participated in several local bands such as Keep Thinking, Cultivation, and Slow Leslie. He later moved to New York City, playing mostly at open mikes and small venues.
Mason’s popularity rose after musician Conor Oberst discovered his music backstage at a Bright Eyes show. Oberst would soon sign Mason to his new record label, Team Love and release his debut LP. Since then, he has toured with the likes of Radiohead, Death Cab For Cutie, Ben Kweller, and Unbusted, and played such venues as the Glastonbury Festival, South By Southwest, and the Offshore Ale House.
Mason’s debut album Where The Humans Eat, and singles (Oxygen and So Long), charted in the UK Singles Chart and Albums Chart in 2005.
New album If The Ocean Gets Rough released in 2007.

I just got my hands on the newest from Willy cause I've got close connections. Its called the 'Poughkeepsie Demo'. It appears to be burnt by Willy, as it is in a burnt CD case with a simple picture glued on the front, Has the name of the demo, 'April 10 2009' and his signature on the blank CD, which is a Philips CD-R. It has 5 tracks. 1. A new recording of Hard Hand to Hold 2. Appears to be a new song. 3. Also new I think 4. New 5. New. All records are by Willy by himself and have more of a Where The Humans Eat feel than If The Ocean Gets Rough. I have pictures if anyone is interested but I would prefer not to spread the mp3's themselves.
