Biography
At seventeen Mila Mason arrived in Nashville accompanied by her mother, a seasoned entertainer whose résumé included European tours and a standing Las Vegas engagement opening for the Commodores. Performance itself, however, was not the initial draw; Mason’s deep commitment to songwriting supplied the true impetus. She positioned herself as an aspiring pacesetter within the Music City community, sustaining herself by recording demos and jingles while making the customary rounds at Music Row offices.
In 1993 producer Blake Mevis, whose credits already encompassed George Strait, Vern Gosdin, and Keith Whitley, recognized her vocal gifts and forwarded several of her compositions to Atlantic Records Vice President Bryan Switzer. The introduction secured a recording agreement whose first two albums yielded the singles “That’s Enough of That,” “Dark Horse,” and “Closer to Heaven.”
Mason later stepped away from the label to resume the songwriting that had originally defined her ambitions, balancing that work with family life until May 2003, when she reentered the studio under a new arrangement with Twinbeat Records. Her inaugural project for the imprint, Stained Glass Window, reached stores in late summer 2003.
