Willy Mason – Playing A Living Room Near You…

Singer-songwriters often profess their love of “intimate” gigs, but Uncut-acclaimed artist Willy Mason has taken things a little further – he’s inviting fans to nominate their own homes as venues.

The Martha’s Vineyard troubadour’s second album, “If The Ocean Gets Rough”, is released on March 5. As a taster of his new material, he is embarking on a two-week tour in February, and he wants you to name the setting.
