Steve Winwood first captured the public's imagination as a teenage prodigy with the Spencer Davis Group in the mid-1960s, churning out hits like "Gimme Some Lovin'" and "I'm a Man." His formidable talent as both a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist soon steered him towards new creative ventures, notably the formation of Traffic. Alongside fellow luminaries like Jim Capaldi, Chris Wood, and Dave Mason, Traffic melded rock, jazz, and folk elements into a fluid and compelling sound, yielding classics such as "Dear Mr. Fantasy" and "The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys."

Today, May 10th, 2024, we at Grateful Web are thrilled to honor the birthday of Dave Mason, a true icon of rock music and a seminal member of the legendary band Traffic. Mason's career spans over five decades, marked by stellar musicianship, innovative songwriting, and a distinct voice that has left a lasting impact on the rock and roll landscape.

Renowned rock icon Dave Mason, a Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famer and one of the greatest singer-songwriters of his era, is set to release his highly anticipated memoir, titled Only You Know and I Know. This groundbreaking book marks the first time a member of Traffic has penned a memoir, offering fans a rare glimpse into the extraordinary life and career of one of music's unsung legends. The book is set for release on September 10, 2024 and available for pre-order HERE.

Jim Capaldi was a major figure on the British rock scene from the 1960s into the new millennium; achieving  stardom both as a founding member of Traffic and successful solo artist who collaborated with some of the most prestigious artists of his day.

Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Dave Mason has been performing live shows for more than 50 years. Music is Dave's passion and desire, and 2019 marks a new year in his musical journey. With that in mind, he has prepared a new live show entitled, “Feelin' Alright Tour 2019”, which promises to live up to its title.
