Lol Mason

Died July 31, 2019

A proud Brummie, Mason fronted two chart bands from the Midlands, and had Top 10 hits with both: City Boy’s 5.7.0.5 in 1978, and five years later with The Maisonettes and Heartache Avenue. City Boy were among the first British bands produced by Robert John ‘Mutt’ Lange. Mason, who was 69, died of a heart attack, after complications following a kidney transplant.
