Round Here [Counting Crows Cover]

Cinematic, electronic, and rock soundscapes collide in the music of [pseudonym], brainchild of Atlanta-based Mason Bellamy. Fluctuating from intimate emotions to cinematic grandeur, his music is sure to pull the listener into his world and not let go. His songs are often dark and intense, but also beautiful, taking his raw emotions and turning them into something that sounds larger than life.

His recent release "Too Gone", is an intimate and moody piece that manages to capture the vibe of a live band while incorporating his signature cinematic flair. It's a powerful track that would be equally at home on the stage or in a blockbuster movie soundtrack. While it almost sounds stripped-down at first, once you really listen, you get a sense for the rich depth of sonic layers that exist in much of his music.

Mason started music like many, figuring out his favorite songs by ear on piano. Once his parents realized his aptitude for music, he was enrolled in piano lessons at a young age. Shortly after this, he got into guitar and started a band in middle school. After his much-older bandmates left for college, Mason was left alone to fill his time with covering his favorite songs. These eventually morphed into original creations which he began to release under the name [pseudonym].

You can hear [pseudonym]'s range of talents in features with artists such as cuuteboi and Horde of Jordan, but when he's in his element creating his unique blend of cinematic electronic rock, it's really something to behold.
