Mike Masser first came on the music scene as the guitar player in Hand Over Fist in the early 2000s. they released 2 full length albums and an EP, Night Creature, Diablo Del Sol, and Die Trying.
After playing in Hand Over Fist, Mike felt burnt out on everything music related. So he took a step back from it all. After some encouragement from a friend and his wife a decade after hanging it up, Mike decided it was time to get back in. Only this time he’d be putting himself front and center. he picked his guitar back up. Only this time around he was going to try his hand at being the vocalist as well. He wrote and recorded his solo debut Desert Sun and looks back on it as more like “an experiment” to see if he could do it. “It was meant to be mellow, something out of my wheelhouse. I wanted it to sound like something I’ve never done.”
