Vincent Mason Marks ACM Awards Nomination With 'Don't Ask Me'

Vincent Mason celebrated his nomination for ACM New Male Artist of the Year by sharing his brand new single entitled "Don't Ask Me," which was written by Mason, Luke Laird, Hillary Lindsey, and Jack Rautona.

"'Don't Ask Me' lives in that quiet, unsettled space after everything falls apart, the part no one really talks about. It's not polished, it's just honest. We leaned into the details, the restless nights, the questions you don't have answers for yet, and let the imagery sit right there in the middle of it."

The song is told through the eyes of someone dealing with the aftermath of a breakup, with the lyrics delving deep into those emotions with lines like "Don't ask me how I'm doing, don't ask me how I've been, don't ask about those empty cans rolling around in my truck bed" paint a portrait of a man sorting through regrets, searching for answers he may never find.

Fans can catch Mason on his current spring tour, as well as on dates supporting Morgan Wallen, Parker McCollum, and Thomas Rhett. Stream "Don't Ask Me" and see the tour dates below:
