Occasionally there appears a selcet band whose talent, determination, and unique style of music proves they are here to stay. One such band is Masque. Known to Atlanta since 1992 Masque is a group of talented musicians who have been writing and performing alternative rock music for over a decade.
In August 2002 Masque released it's first full length CD State of Mind, produced by Jeff Tomei.(Jeff Tomei's credits include Matchbox 20, Jerry Cantrell, Brother Cane.)
Masque is a five member band whose style is based on original rock and roll with alternative influences; yet distinguished by the powerful and passionate vocals of Ken Archer.
Ken is responsible for the emotional realistic, and sometimes provocative lyrics of Masque. Guitarist Greg Lutton and MJ Herndon sharing the rhythm and lead roles offering two diverse guitar sounds which form Masque's musical style. Bassist Russ Selby grounds the rhythm section with his pronounced and refreshing groove.

Masque's song Homeless was the inspiration for a compilation CD that brought fourteen Atlanta bands together for a common cause. Greg Land a Creative Loafing critic said in his review of the Homeless CD "The lead offband Masque who spearheaded the benefit effort and wrote the the title song turns in a couple of solid cuts."
