Mason Via is the latest recruit to Old Crow Medicine Show, he’s also recently made his Grand Ole Opry debut with the band and was a Top 40 finalist on American Idol. Obviously someone with time on his hands, he recently signed to Mountain Fever Records for a solo album of all original music. The album’s out soon and ‘Colarado’ is the second single from it. It’s a powerfully fast bluegrass number that eulogises that most popular of states, the wide open spaces and the Rocky Mountains.
Mason Via is ably assisted by Thomas Cassell on mandolin; Nick Goad on Tenor Harmony Vocals; Jacob Harbour on Baritone Harmony Vocals; Alex Genova on banjo; Sam Wiess on fiddle; and Ben Somerville on bass. It’s a song to make you forget about Autumnal days and want to head for the hills.
