Box Elder is the creative project of frontman and guitarist. Chris Mason, and as of winter 2022, it had transformed into a full-fledged indie punk band based out of Wyoming.

Now based in Salt Lake City, Utah, the group draws influence from late ’90s/early ’00s indie and emo bands and infuses elements of modern-day emo and pop punk into its sound. Box Elder bring a unique approach to the pop-punk aesthetic blending tight, high energy and roaring guitars with booming and ethereal synthesizers.

Today, the band's latest single, "Post College Days," hits streaming platforms. 

“This song is about the changing landscape of friendships as you start navigating adulthood while trying to maintain those relationships,” says Mason. “It’s dedicated to my friend Kylie who passed in December of 2021 and who was one of the first people that massively supported this band and constantly supported me.”

Currently the band is finalizing plans for a 2026 full-length release and Spring U.S. tour. Stay tuned.
