Ben Mastwyk is the ringmaster of his band The Millions and the creator of three albums, the latest of which, Livin’ on Gold Street, was released in 2021. Mastwyk’s music is thrillingly entertaining while also being lyrically thoughtful, proof that an artist can be dedicated to putting on a great show – even in recorded form – while also being interested in the structure and integrity of the songs. Or, indeed, proving that those things are intrinsically related.
Mastwyk’s new single released in March is called ‘Actually’ and it is a cosmic country trip that’s taking him all the way to two upcoming shows in South Australia. Those shows are listed below and tickets are available at https://sixteenhandshigh.com
To prepare yourself for what promises to be a very entertaining show, you can watch my chat with Mastwyk on YouTube, or listen in Soundcloud or on the podcast.
