Mason Music Fest is back again, bringing the Birmingham community together for a one-day music festival on Friday, May 31.
Doors open at 4 p.m. and the show will begin at 5 p.m. at Avondale Brewing Company (201 41st St
This year, Mason Music Fest will feature a lineup including Mountain Grass Unit, Kashus Culpepper, and Taylor Wilson. In addition, two of Mason Music’s Rock Band League student bands will be opening the show.
This will be the third consecutive year the event has been held at Avondale Brewing and will feature artists with Alabama ties.
“We've moved the event earlier in the year so we should avoid the blistering heat of late summer, and we’re stoked to bring these artists to the big stage,” said Mason Music owner Will Mason. "Mountain Grass Unit is a group to keep an eye on, for sure. Drury, Luke, and Sam all came through Mason Music's Rock Band League program years ago and we knew at the time these were some special kids. Their musicianship was way ahead of the curve for their age. They've been blowing up recently and we are so happy for their success.
General admission tickets are $18 and preferred pit tickets are $43. 100% of the proceeds benefit the Mason Music Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit dedicated to changing lives by providing music lesson scholarships to families who qualify for financial assistance.
Since its founding in 2012, Mason Music has offered private lessons in guitar, piano, voice, and drums to thousands of students of all ages and skill levels, along with music camps, group lessons, Rock Band League, and retail. Mason Music has studios located all over Birmingham, with locations in Cahaba Heights, Mountain Brook Village, Bluff Park, Greystone, and Woodlawn.
