Are you one of the million of viewers who have watched the new season of Stranger Things on Netflix?

This season of the show has made some news when it comes to musical connections.

Have you heard about the resurgence of Kate Bush‘s song “Running Up That Hill”?

Or the use of Metallica’s “Master Of Puppets.”

Well, you may not have realized the show has a country connection this season as well.

Mason Dye – who plays “Jason Carver” on Stranger Things…

…is the older brother of Taylor Kerr, of Maddie & Tae!

Stranger Things isn’t Mason’s first acting job as he’s been in the business for a decade now…one of his previous roles includes a little starring role in a certain country duo’s music video for “Shut Up And Fish.”

Tae and Maddie admit that while they may be biased, they both think Mason is one of the best things about the new season of Stranger Things.

While Mason has the acting thing covered in the Dye family, his little sister Taylor has the music covered as Maddie & Tae recently released their latest single “Every Night Every Morning” – the first track from their upcoming project, Through The Madness Vol 2.
