ASBURY PARK VIBES PODCAST

Beyond the Tide: The Erik Mason Band’s Coastal Sound


Listen Later

Erik Mason and his band brought “coastal soft rock” to life in this episode—cinematic indie with ‘70s roots and a hint of pink-sky Americana. We dug into the stories behind his songwriting, from the timeless influence of Jackson Browne, Billy Joel, and Neil Young to the way Jersey Shore places and people have shaped his band’s music.

With his latest EP Butterfly Effects, Erik explores how small choices and fleeting moments can set entire stories in motion. It follows his 2021 album The Tide—together showing a songwriter who’s both reflective and refreshingly grounded in authenticity.

One of the highlights was an incredible in-studio acoustic session—warm harmonies, tasteful piano, and reimagined, stripped-down versions that let the lyrics breathe. Tune in to this engaging episode to catch the acoustic performance and learn all about the Erik Mason Band.
