Biography

Denuo is an alternative/dreampop band from Conwy in North Wales led by Welsh multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Tom Mason. Blending dreamy soundscapes, ambient pop, and shoegaze elements, the sound is defined by Mason’s wistful vocals and a fascination with film soundtracks. Originally formed as a studio project with producer/bassist Russ Hayes, their music has evolved from the subtly arranged ‘Wolf River’ EP to the more ambitious and cinematic crescendos heard in the 2014 album Scarlet Sleep and 2016's Frozen Lake EP. These releases received support within the Welsh music scene and airplay from BBC Radio stations, leading to support slots with the likes of Manic Street Preachers and The Joy Formidable. Inspired by a trip to Japan in 2017, Mason explores the influences of the country and its music on his latest album ‘Through Life’ - released in late 2021 via Twin Moon. Pitched somewhere between melodic city pop and the sighing beauty of Roxy Music’s ‘Avalon’, the beautiful indie-pop of 2019 single ‘Lucid’ (which was included on Spotify's 'Dreampop' playlist for over a year) presaged the sound of the record perfectly. Outside of Denuo, Tom can be found performing guitars/vocals on tour with fellow Welsh artist Novo Amor. "The reflective choruses inhabit memories of better times and trying to let go of the regrets of the past. Exquisitely drawn." - God Is In The TV
