Pronounced Maas Ee-sa, not Y-S-A as I wished in order to make a shitty Village People gag that is a massive stretch, Mas YSA has shared stages with acts from Deerhunter to Purity Ring to Delorean. If you’re not heading to Splendour then witness Thomas Arsenault smash it in Melbourne with his unique blend of avant garde, danceable, melancholy folk.
