The alt-rock sound coming out of Boston (in the fine state of Massachusetts, in the fine country of the United States of America) has a name: a'tris. The group draws upon a myriad of influences to create a noise that moves crowds to their feet. The front man/singer/keyboardist/tunesmith hails from Charlottesville, Virginia. He goes by the name Mason Taylor.
Since relocating to Boston, Taylor has teamed up with several talented musicians, engineers, sonic manipulators, sound wave amplifiers, and assorted players of various instruments. They all have stories to tell. The best way to understand these stories is to come to a show. After listening to the show, you should approach the band member slowly and ask him questions. Buy him a beer. Do not make sudden movements, the musicians tend to be skittish.

Sounds cool, I'll definitely have to do that. Hopefully I'll get to see you guys live sometime, I wish I could've made it out to Raleigh but it's pretty far from here.
Hey, I listened to "Chasing Rabbits", it was amazing. I really like all the other songs on the EP as well. I kept finding myself standing completely still, just... listening. Quite entrancing. I especially liked "Cactus Bride". On a seperate note, I saw the live video for Automatic Doors today; it was a lot of fun to watch. I love your enthusiasm :)
yeah, I found the video of that song being performed at shatterproof studios on the a'tris youtube channel. The mohawk took me by surprise... fantastic song though :) Actually, all the a'tris songs I've heard are pretty great... Consider me a fan. :D
