(Airdate: June 11, 2024) Maryanne interviews Kevin Mason, local legend and musician, who is most recently known for his headline-grabbing “Raccoon Lodge” on Clay Street. When the 150-year-old tree in his yard was torn apart by PT’s notorious winds, he decided to create something worthy of our arts community. It was almost razed by city officials until there was quite a community outcry. Kevin is now a fixture singing dance tunes at the Concerts on the Dock. He also croons “classic vintage cocktail music.” But his background is much more colorful. His mechanical bent first led him to jobs repairing equipment. That somehow turned into a career designing fantastic nightclubs. Y2K ignited his fascination with computers. So he became a web designer. His love of music took a backseat until after he relocated to PT. Now he’s singing again.
