Mason Summit is a Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, producer, & multi-instrumentalist whose music blends folk, jazz, & psychedelic pop. At an early age, his father, the late actor/musician Christopher Allport, taught him guitar basics & accompanied him at local open mic nights. Summit began writing his own music in the wake of Christopher’s 2008 death in an avalanche. Summit took a gap year after high school to record 2016’s Gunpowder Tracks, for which No Depression labeled him a “pop prodigy.” While studying at the USC Thornton School of Music, Summit branched out into independent production work, producing two tracks on Jensen McRae’s early EP Milkshakes, as well as Irene Greene’s debut single, “Platinum Baby.” In 2020, he graduated USC and released the album Negative Space. His latest single, “Snowblind,” came out on February 26.

Just a few short months ago, musician and high school student Mason Summit had been accepted to college and was set to leave Los Angeles and study something far more sensible than music at a far away school. But his passion for music got the best of him and Summit switched tacks to songwriting. While the rest of his newly graduated classmates are packing up their laptops and lava lamps this late summer and heading off to college, Summit will stay closer to home, study songwriting and focus on his burgeoning music career. One of those classmates is guitarist, singer and songwriter Spencer Shapeero, who graduated a year before Summit and skipped town to the east coast to study music at Boston's famed Berklee College of Music. Early in middle school, Shapeero and Summit struck up their friendship based on a shared affinity for crafty songwriting and the pair formed a duo called The Clowns Will Eat Me to allow them both a creative outlet and a harmony voice. Both musicians are active in multiple projects but the two friends have a certain simpatico that shows in their music when they work together. Lead vocals are shared - sometimes between lines of verses - and their harmonic structures are informed by a mutual love for art-pop masters like Elliott Smith and Jon Brion.

“The kids are alright!” How many times have we heard that since The Who coined that amped-up pop aphorism on their 1965 debut album? The more ‘half empty' set of every established generation seem convinced that the subsequent generation has no talent and no respect for their elders. Could it be the obligation of every generation to piss off those who came before? But time irrevocably marches on and great music continues to be made. Enter Mason Summit, a singer/songwriter who is still in high school and has two albums to his credit. Let that sink in for a minute. While his classmates were teepeeing their teachers' houses or spending endless hours playing video games, Summit was playing legendary live music venues in Los Angeles and recording and honing his skills as an emerging songwriter. Summit's songs are sharp and accessible, his guitar playing is pleasantly frenetic and his melodies and vocals show that he has done his homework by studying the masters of the craft of songwriting. So just forget all that stuff about Mason Summit being young. He is talented and motivated and has already earned his stripes - and if he keeps up his moving and shaking, future generations of young musicians will likely be studying his songs one day.
