UK singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Zachary Mason returns with his new single “Man Of The Universe,” a playful Space Rock adventure produced by legendary British producer Stuart Epps, whose extensive career includes work with artists such as Led Zeppelin, Oasis, Elton John, George Harrison and Robbie Williams.

The collaboration came together in June 2026, when Zachary reached out to Epps and shared three of his demos. To Zachary’s delight, Epps responded positively to all three tracks, ultimately choosing “Man Of The Universe” for the two to develop together.

Epps brought his extensive studio experience to the recording, contributing drums, bass, organ and backing vocals, as well as producing the track. The result is a lively Space Rock single with psychedelic touches that connects naturally with Zachary’s earlier Sci-Fi EP, 5…4…3…2…1….

Lyrically, “Man Of The Universe” takes inspiration from the classic world of Sci-Fi magazines and pulp science fiction, following a larger-than-life character who travels the universe in a powerful spaceship, battles aliens and space pirates, and attracts plenty of female admirers along the way. Rather than taking itself too seriously, the song embraces the playful, imaginative spirit of vintage science fiction.

For Zachary, the collaboration was a major milestone. After the recording, he described Epps as a true “man of the music world,” making the opportunity to work with such an experienced figure particularly meaningful.

At just 29, Zachary Mason has already built an impressive catalog of independent music. Based in Guildford, UK, he has created between 200 and 250 demo tracks since 2021, working primarily with acoustic and electric guitars and keyboards. His music spans multiple genres, with his influences including Neil Young, Bob Dylan, David Bowie and The Beatles.

Zachary’s music has received coverage from Rolling Stone En Español, TJPL News, Rock Era Magazine, Return Of Rock, The Big Takeover and M.E.I. News, among others. He was also interviewed by SPIN Magazine in 2025. His single “I Wish Humans Were Made In A Factory…” reached the semi-finals of the 2025 International Songwriting Competition (ISC), while several of his songs, including unreleased material, have been accepted into sync libraries.

With his streaming numbers now exceeding one million, Zachary continues to build momentum as an independent artist while exploring new sounds and concepts. With “Man Of The Universe,” he combines his love of science fiction with Space Rock, psychedelic influences and a legendary producer to create a track designed simply to be fun.
