Bio

Masons Landing are a band from in and around Mississauga, Ontario creating a unique sound that is a throw back to a number of musical eras and genres from funk, swing, punk, rock and soul while maintaining a constant and consistent evolution. While staying true to a wide range of influences, which number too many to really name here, Masons Landing believe that they have broken beyond that barrier of replication and begun a phase of penetration to the core of something new, exciting and widely appealing. The following non-fiction occurred over three years...

It began humbly from the outskirts of Meadowvale, a small neighborhood in Mississauga, Ontario, when Nick and Rick met and began working on some cover material. Excited about their instant chemistry and shared musical interests they soon began looking for others to fill in their rhythm section.

While jamming with another bass player they practically fell upon Sebastian through some friends from Malefic Tattoos in Streetsville, Ontario and the newly formed four piece unit began pounding out blistering covers week in and week out. After some personality conflicts bubbled to the surface it seemed like all was lost for our brave pioneers when they parted ways to work on other projects.

Devastational circumstance found Nick and Rick back together, this time writing original material. It came naturally, fluidly and without any mechanical pretension within a matter of weeks. With a solid foundation of friends rooting us on and further trials and tribulations testing our mettle we had no choice but to invite Sebastian into the fold. Once he listened to the raw reference tracks he got goosebumps and nodded his head.

Thus the search was on for a fourth member to support the bottom end, auditioning numerous bass players from wherever we could find them. At the end of our second week our very last audition knocked on the door and Attila was born.

Grueling hours of rehearsal and headbutting ensued until coming out on the other side gigging from St. Catherines to Dunnville to Toronto and recording the new demo EP "Honour Among Thieves". Masons Landing genuinely look forward to sharing our music with as many people in as many places as possible.
