==Biography==
Brent Mason was born on July 13, 1959, in Van Wert, Ohio.〔 At five years old, he taught himself to play guitar by ear.〔 He moved to Nashville, Tennessee after graduating from high school, in order to pursue a career in country music. Early Nashville gigs included a stint with the Don Kelly Band, a cover band who performed at the flinty Murfreesboro Road Honky-tonk, ''The Stagecoach Lounge''. Eventually, he was discovered by country guitarist Chet Atkins, who invited him to play on his ''Stay Tuned'' album. From there, Mason has gone on to play on well over a thousand 〔(Brent Mason | Credits | AllMusic )〕 other artists' albums, including those of George Strait, Alan Jackson, Shania Twain, David Gates, Brooks & Dunn, Zac Brown Band, Scotty McCreary, Blake Shelton and Neil Diamond.〔 Mason also co-wrote McBride & the Ride's "Hurry Sundown".
Mason signed to Mercury Records in 1997, releasing an instrumental album entitled ''Hot Wired'' the same year. This was his only major-label album. He made a decision to leave Mercury Records soon after to remain in Nashville and work in the recording studio as a session guitarist rather than spend most of his time on the road touring and away from his family. He and his brother Randy released a second album, entitled ''Smokin' Section'', in 2006. At the 51st Grammy Awards, he and several other guitarists won the Grammy Award for Best Country Instrumental, for the track "Cluster Pluck" from Brad Paisley's mostly-instrumental album ''Play''.〔.〕
Although Brent works mainly as a studio musician he has produced several albums to date for artists like Erin James, Tommy Dalton, Cindy Kvinlaug, Evi Tausen〔(Theguitarfiles.com ) Brent Mason Biography〕 and coproduced an album with Byron Gallimore for Clay Walker. In November 2013, Mason collaborated with online education site (JamPlay.com ) to put together guitar a series of lessons for aspiring guitarists and members of JamPlay.
