“…reminiscent of the hazy art-rock of TV on the Radio”
Pitchfork

“…extremely catchy with tunes that immediately sink into your brain and stick with you for days on end.”
The Tripwire


Since the release of their critically acclaimed latest album, Olly Oxen Free, Michigan’s Mason Proper are no longer indie rock’s best kept secret, and are rapidly turning into one of the most beloved bands of the genre.

The band is getting ready to hit the road with Stellastarr* and Wild Light for some west coast dates. They also just completed a video for “Safe For The Time Being,” which will make its online debut shortly.

The band’s video for “Lock & Key” got heavy airplay on MTV2’s Subterranean, who also voted the clip as the #3 best indie music video of 2008.

And be sure to listen to the Mason Proper’s “Love Lockdown Gets Innocuous,” which is a cover song that mashes up elements of Kanye West’s “Love Lockdown” with LCD Soundsystem’s “Get Innocuous.”
