There’s a certain sense of freedom behind ‘Beyond This Place’. A longing for a different life, the desire to escape normality. Exploring a lyrical theme that’s particularly crucial these days, Harri Mason sings about the joy of running away with a loved one, leaving everything else behind. The willingness to start anew is not lost on us: perhaps that’s also what motivates people. The ability to learn from their past and kickstart their lives again. Echoing the likes of Bruce Springsteen and The War on Drugs, ‘Beyond This Place’ delves into real singer-songwriting goodness, blending folk, rock and Americana elements into a relatable and friendly package.
Introduced by an anthemic and catchy vocal hook, the record jumps straight into full-band territories, while showcasing the Bristol talent’s nuanced songwriting efforts. Slowly, Mason takes us through a polite verse, building up to a more punchy and liberating chorus. Quite an inspiring song, which we are confident will empower the listener into taking a trip, short or long: the important is to explore cultures and communities.
Having championed a fantastic 2022, Harri Mason looks set on success. We’ll be here supporting.
