Sunshine Coast singer-songwriter Mason Hope is a pretty chill guy with a lot of talent.
In 2016 he took home the trophy for the Gympie Music Muster national talent search, the following year celebrating as the Trans Tasman Entertainer Of The Year.
With performances at events such as Caloundra Music Festival and Tamworth Country Music Festival under his belt, as well as the recent release of a new EP, Mason is naturally always looking for time to relax.
Here, he lists five 'chicken soup for the soul' spots you can catch him in, when he's not performing and showcasing his talents.
1: Chills at Mooloolaba Beach. Soft sand, kebabs, coffee, and loos with views.
2: Walking through Mount Tamborine rainforest and breathing it all in.
3: Sitting on the grass at Alex Headland watching the waves and smelling the salty air.
4: Loud music venues where you can lose yourself in the beats.
5: Being with our dogs. We love them. So good for the soul.
