Jason Mraz is a Grammy Award winning smooth jazz singer/songwriter originally from Virginia, USA who rose to fame on the San Diego coffee house circuit.

Originally from Mechanicsville in Virginia, Mraz described his childhood as idyllically American. He moved around a lot after his education, he enrolled at the American Musican & Dramatic society in New York before returning home and attended Longwood University, but instead of going to classes he went road tripping west and eventually ended up settling in San Francisco.

He threw himself into the musical scene of the city, becoming a roadie for Elgin Park and released a rough demo album of tracks including '1000 Things' and 'Halfway Home'. Elektra Records released his first full length in 2002 which spawned his first appearance on the US billboard charts with his single 'The Remedy' and earned him an opening slot for Tracy Chapman at London's Royal Albert Hall.

His next major success came in 2008 when he released his third album 'We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things' which charted at number three in the US and within the top ten in the UK, building on Mraz's already growing reputation, the album has gone on to sell almost two million copies in the States. It features Jason's most successful single to date, the tender 'I'm Yours' which has sold 9.5 million copies to date. The other two songs released from the album did not fare as well commercially but scored Mraz two Grammy awards.

A huge foundation to build on, 'Love Is A Four Letter Word' charted highest on the US and UK album charts and featured his second most successful 'I Won't Give Up'. He released his fifth album 'Yes!' this summer and it saw more success in the US.

Live reviews

Jason Mraz is an amazing artist, not only is he a great musician and singer, but he is also a great looking guy with an awesome personality to match.

My favourite Jason Mraz gig has to be when I saw him at St. Pancras Old Church in London, a couple of years back. Somehow that atmosphere seemed to fit with his intimate voice and sometimes fragile sound. His fans really love him and are so respectful during the songs – often he closes his eyes as he sings, and you want to do the same, letting him transport you to somewhere else. He really knows how to put on a great show and all you can do is focus on him as he performs.

One of the things I love about Jason Mraz concerts is the fact that he doesn't need a big band and backing singers – often it's just him and another musician or singer. That kind of setup is very simple throughout his shows. If you are a fan of his music (at least you must have heard his big hit "I'm Yours"?), just wait until you hear him live and in concert, it is such a different experience.

There's something vulnerable about Jason Mraz: he's standing up there alone, wearing his trademark hat, pouring his soul into a microphone, and making you feel like you're the only person in the world. There's no question that you'll definitely get your money's worth, he sings most of his hit songs from his albums old and new and you get a great show no matter what. "Coyotes" is my absolute favourite song (along with many others), though I am sure if you ask anyone they will tell you it is hard to choose just one song by Jason! He puts on a great show and it is one concert not to not miss: thank you Jason!

I have loved Jason's music ever since "The Remedy (I Won't Worry)" came out in 2002 and was such a breath of fresh air from the over-saturated pop music scene. I have so many wonderful memories of his music and how he can just reach his fans. His music resonates with so many different walks of life and that was very evident at the concert last night. There were older and younger fans and I was really moved by everyone's reactions to his music. We were all dancing by his second song and just fell in love with his banter in between the songs. I can honestly say that I was not as familiar with Raining Jane, but they definitely compliment Jason. They are so talented, the amount of instruments and harmonies they showcased were definitely a treat. Powerful vocals and just phenomenal stage presence from both acts made the night. I would definitely attend another Jason Mraz and Raining Jane concert if they ever make it to Spokane again!

After missing out on first hand seller's tickets to Jason Mraz's concert at the Rpyal Albert Hall, I was aware of the vitality I acquired my tickets immediately.

It was not a waste. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and so did my dad, who only knew one of his albums. The audience was a mix, mainly middle aged women and students from abroad, so it appeared I was one of very few under 20s. But it was still great.

The fx and videos were very creative and engaging, my only criticism could possibly be the very intense lighting that hit directly at eyes. Even from row X it was great, no one really stood up to party and everyone seemed relatively polite. The venue was not too large and cosy, there was awesome interaction between Mraz, Raining Jane and the audience. It made the experience a whole lot better. Honestly, it was wonderful. I enjoyed it greatly and would definitely do it again!

I only knew a couple of songs before I visited the show of Jason Mraz in Afas live in Amsterdam, but that has changed since enjoying a colorful two hour live performance with artists who love performing and whose main concerns are to only spread positive vibes. Mraz was joined by the folk band Raining Jane and his chemistry with the band obviously shows. Classics like 'I'm yours','Lucky' and 'I won't give up' were all sung and sounded just like the good quality tunes they are when listening to them on cd, but a live performance always gives an extra dimension to it. Talented Mraz ended the show on good note by spreading his sincere best wishes for the audience which let me go home with a big smile on my face. Highly recommended to visit if you like listening to relaxed tunes with meaning.

This was one of the best concerts I have attended, musically speaking! Jason us talented, personable, and connects extremely well with the audience!

What was most disappointing was that tickets went on sale on Friday June 10th at 10am and we were up and placed by our phones and computer by 5 mins till to make sure we got through. At exactly 10.. My computer said SOLD OUT. My husband got through on the phone and was first on the line with his operator!!! But our seats were practically in the lobby in chairs behind the regular seating!! Either Jason or the venue pre sold almost all the tickets!!! This is a very unfair practice that needs to be stopped! Again great concert, but tickets going to scalpers before going on sale is unfair!!

So, if you didn't love Jason Mraz before the concert, which means you were not breathing, you loved him after. His warm, genuine and very obviously authentic compassionate and caring nature comes right off the stage and into your heart. He is fun, energetic, talented and uses the talent for more than $$$$. In the moments he was on stage, he lit up the crowd enough to have a few people donate alot of money to BANDING TOGETHER, a non-profit committed to providing music training and therapies to kids with disabilities.

This was a heart-growing, enjoyable and worthy event that I will be attending each year.

Thank you, Jason and Banding Together for making our world a better place!!

The show was so great. Even though it didn't have so much gorgeous visual effect, the songs were so beautiful. Jason was still good at live performance. This kind of performance suits best for a location like state theater. It's indoor, so the sound can be perfectly conveyed. And Raining Jane was so charming. Those four beatiful ladies are talented. One of the best parts was before intermission, they were singing and the screen was playing a funny video they made for the show. That was so much fun. Another part was the last two songs, I'm yours and I won't give up. It felt so good that the entire theater sang with him.

Honestly, despite having become a fan of Mraz over the last few years, I didn't quite know what to expect from him live. With 'Yes' being a more subdued album than the ones I was hooked on, I was thankful to be seeing him at the Academy of Music instead of a bigger venue (per Mraz's choice).

Wow. Yes (no pun intended) it was kind of subdued, but he and Raining Jane(!) were excellent. His voice is better than advertised, he brought a coffee shop vibe to the arena... and did I mention Raining Jane? The drummer/vocalist/songwriter Mia(?) is phenomenal.

Go see him live, if you like him, you'll love it.

Jason Mraz at this concert shared with us all the good vibes with that he had came with. And we really felt all the emotions that he wanted to share with the public.

We felt him really happy to be on the stage, and doing his show for us.

If when you came you had the stress of work, from your day, and you jumped in totally in his songs...Your stress flew away ! :')

It is what it was happened for my case ^^

And at the end of the show, i felt myself very happy, peaceful in my interior.

I can not wait for the next time, it was a pleasant evening again this time !

Thank you for these goods vibes ! :D

Wow ... An amazing show. I've been fortunate to see a number of live shows this year and this is definitely the best. Jason Mraz and Raining Jane are a fantastic combination. He captures you from the moment he steps on stage as he introduces himself as, "Hello, yes this is me" never once actually mentioning his name. But with his amazing voice, you are definitely not left wondering who you're watching. The live renditions of his tracks are almost better than his studio recordings. Cannot wait to see him again. Highly recommended.

"I wanted to do goodness with my words and my actions": An interview with Jason Mraz

Jason Mraz ’s infectious blend of feel-good rhythms, sincere lyrics and down-to-earth personality has been his charms throughout his 20-year-career. Then, there are the hits: His most iconic song, 2005’s ‘I’m Yours’ , has garnered over 600 million streams of Spotify and certified Gold or higher in numerous countries. And that’s just scratching the surface.

Since then, his discography has touched millions of hearts at home and overseas, spreading his philosophy of life and gratitude to everyone who needed it most. There’s no denying that he’s one of the brightest spots in the pop/singer-songwriter scene of our generation.

Before he touches down in Singapore for his Good Vibes Tour , we spoke to him about his philosophy of life and music, his latest album, Know . and his love of nature, including his beloved avocado farm.

How have you been since the last time you were in Singapore, last year?

BANDWAGON TV

I've been very good. I've been having lots of fun, continuing to make music and travel. I've also been continuing to practice gratitude and enjoy my precious time in America.

You'll be returning to Singapore this year, which is just a year after your last concert. What is it about Singapore that draws you in?

It's certainly a centre for trade. But I always look at the peripheral and the perimeter. I look at the tropical trees and the beauty. The nature that changes humanity. I love Singapore's Botanical Gardens and Gardens by the Bay. It's a major city but you don't have to very far to get close to nature. I love that about Singapore.

And why is nature so important to you?

It's the most important thing to all of us. I love it because it's real and it's quiet. It's always a pleasure to interact with nature, whether it's watching animals or plants grow. I wish more of humanity had access to and/or awareness of nature so that in our consumption, we would treat nature differently. 

Moving on to your music, your latest album Know. is a fantastic body of work. Was the songwriting process different from your previous albums?

I don't know if there was anything different in the process. The only thing different about all of my albums is the slight perspective that changes with age. There are certainly songs from my first and second albums that I no longer perform. I don't connect with the mindset that I had on some of those songs now. 

It was around 2007 that I wanted to do well. I wanted to do goodness with my words and my actions. I tried to write the kind of songs that are transformative and can awaken one to the precedence of life or nature or their own heart. I do it to awaken my heart. I've put in that effort to practice love and to remind us to be grateful in almost every album since then. To be "woke" as it is now said. So writing these songs on this album was no different than on previous ones. Technically, there are a few differences. On my  Yes! album, I wrote and recorded most of my songs with Raining Jane, which will be travelling with me to Singapore. Whereas on this new album, I did it a little more solo, the band still did participate, but not for the duration of the album, only on selected songs.

How was it like working with Meghan Trainor on 'More Than Friends'?

Meghan's fantastic. She's very smart. Very musical. When you get to spend time with someone who is a powerful creator, it rubs off on you. I get very inspired by that. She's very inspiring to work with. 

The music video of another song off the album, 'Might As Well Dance’, featured a few clips of your wife and you dancing on your wedding day. Did you intend on writing that song as an ode to your wife or did it come naturally?

I did. I wrote it for my wife. That's exactly it. That's why I ended up making up the kind of music video that I did because the song originated as a little love song on my wife's answering machine. After some time, I took it into the studio, turned it up a little bit and eventually made it onto the album. Once it was there, I realised it needed video content and I looked at my own wedding footage and thought it was really cool. I asked my wife and she gave me the green light to share the wedding footage on that song. 

At this point of your career, are you concerned about making hits?

No. If you get a hit, you're lucky. But, nowadays, there are so many people looking for hits and it became a competition. I've been very blessed to have had constant support and listenership from loyal fans. My goal through all of this is to make rad music; try to be a rad artist. If you do that, you don't need the hits. You can focus on making art and you'll have people who'll love you and support you regardless of that. I don't look for hits. If they happen, they happen. If they don't, it's no big deal because the art is already being made. 

You've always spread positivity and happiness throughout your career in music. In the current global political climate, how much more important is it to you to continue to do so? Very. In some ways, governments do help because we have to be organized, in some manner. But in many ways, there is a lot of bickering, corruption and inequality. You know, it's tough, and happy songs might be the antidote. They're used everywhere – in church, for all ages – so it's important to have music with positive ingredients. That way, this challenging life – which will always be challenging no matter who’s in charge – can, hopefully, have pockets of solace and peace and hope. 

Bringing it back to your love of nature, why did your wife and you decide to start an avocado farm?

Well, nature in California consists of desert cacti. You actually have to work on the land in order to produce fruit. About ten years ago, there was a big movement and I caught wind of eating farm-to-table, knowing who your local farmers are and being able to buy food directly from a farmer. I realised I could do all of those things in my own backyard, with a little effort. So I started adding fruit trees around my property and meeting other farmers; urban farming was taking off. Now, ten years later, we have a variety of fruits and food that come in seasonally. My carbon footprint is massive because I travel a lot. I feel it's important to live in a way that will offset that. That’s why I did it.

Does working on the farm help you to de-stress from the pressures of having to make music?

Well, I make music almost everyday so I don't stress and feel pressured by that. I work during the days outdoors and enjoy nature and when the sun goes down, I go to the studio and do my studio thing – create songs. It's just like farming. Eventually you'll have to take that fruit to the market and that's basically what's going on with my music, as well.

What are your plans for the rest of the year?

I will be touring much of the summer, all around the planet. When I'm not touring, I'll be making music, working on the farm and, hopefully, being a better husband because that's always worth improving. 

Jason Mraz's The Good Vibes Tour 2019 will be happening in Singapore on Saturday, 11 May, at The Star Theatre. Get your tickets here .

Sound bite: Jason Mraz on his Good Vibes 2019 tour across Asia

Apparently there’s still a fair number of Jason Mraz fans out there, since the singer/songwriter has just announced his plans for a six-city Good Vibes tour across Asia, starting in May 2019. That’s right, six cities.

Speaking to the press after his weekend show at Singapore’s National Stadium, the multiple Grammy Award-winning artist said he would kick off next year’s gigs in Manila on May 8, followed by Singapore on May 11, Hong Kong on May 17 and 18, Bangkok on May 21, Taipei on May 25, and Shanghai at an as-yet-unannounced date.

This series of concerts follows his sixth studio album  Know , which dropped in August with “Have It All” as the first hit single.

At the same press event in Singapore, Mraz dropped some insight about his latest music and how it’s changed over the years — here’s what he had to say.

On why he named the tour Good Vibes

“The Know album is one singular expression. It’s a collection of love songs, and Know is really just a title that gave me an opportunity to follow up on the Yes album. I really wanted to have ‘Yes’ and ‘No’ side by side, and Know is a positive spin on that negative sound. I’m always trying to find the bright side.

Good vibes is good vibrations; it’s being a constant source of good energy, and I didn’t want to just limit it to the album. By the time we come here next year, the album will be almost a year old and I really wanted to bring all the albums with me.”

On the evolution of his sound

“[It’s a] combination of so many things. I think getting older is one of those things. Honestly, I wanted to go jazz a while ago, but I was advised I could do jazz when I’m older. Oddly, I found myself still in an adult contemporary category.

One thing I didn’t want to do was chase trends. Sometimes it’s left me in the middle of the road, not really sure where I stand, but I’ve always tried to be lyrically driven, with an emphasis on optimism, that love is available, that love is an option… The more I became a songwriter, the more I fell in love with lyrics and putting songs together.”

On the good vibes of his Asian audiences

“For me, the enthusiasm and the gratitude is palpable — you can see it, you can hear it, you can participate in it. I think the further away you go from home, the audiences here appreciate it, and they know how far I’ve traveled. When I show up, I get a glimpse of that interconnectivity.”

On what to expect at his 2019 Asia tour

“It’s very similar to the show we did here two nights ago in Singapore where I’ll be bringing Raining Jane and a lot of my friends, in this very colorful expression that allows us to go back to old albums and play some new songs. But also, by May there might be some newer songs.

The whole point is to lose ourselves in song and to harmonize and connect as humans, because life can be very hard and challenging, but music is a way for us to connect to our true selves, as natural, spiritual beings. Music allows us to transcend all of that — that’s what good vibes is all about.”

Jason Mraz performs on May 11, 8pm at The Star Theatre. Tickets  range from $98-$198, and will go on sale from Nov 9, 10am.

Jason Mraz "Tour is a Four Letter Word" interview: "Why am I going crazy?”

• By Monruedee Jansuttipan
• | Jun 14, 2012

What’s the difference between being on tour and back home?

The biggest difference from where I come from--where I was born, in my hometown in Virginia, or where I live now in San Diego--is that all the places have become so familiar that all the routines and all the conversations, even the trees and the bird songs, they tend to almost disappear sometimes from view because you’re so deep inside the familiarity of it that you forget to see how beautiful it really is. So therefore, when I travel, when I go to any other cities, and certainly when I’m constantly traveling, everything is new and you’re constantly engaged, constantly awoken to different sights, sounds, shapes, colors of things.

What’s your take on Asia?

There’s something that’s quite profound that happens for me when I come over to Asia. It is because I can’t read anything, and that creates a quiet of the mind. You know, if I’m in New York City, all I’m reading is advertisements, and street signs; it’s constant business being thrown at you. Whereas when I come over here, or when I’m in China, or Japan, most things around me, or even street signs here in Thailand, they just look like graphic art to me. So it quiets the mind, and it allows me to see more of the nature, more of the beauty, more of the spirit in things versus the man-made, or the messages that they try to send us. It just creates a different mindset, in which I’m going to see the world. And then when things come at me, whether it be a conversation I have or a longing for someone in another city, or just being open through this quiet of mind, I never know what’s going to come up in a song. It could be an old feeling in the past, or it could be an entirely new feeling. But because of that, I do get inspired a lot when I travel.

What about Thailand specifically?

I didn’t know it was called the land of smile before. I like that. But I always try to have as few expectations as possible, so as not to live in some made up future, and then get there and say, “Oh, it’s not that at all”. [I try to] just be open to whatever I walk into. What I have noticed here, and now I know that this land is called the Land of smile--it’s amazing--is grace. Other countries don’t have this grace. This bowing, and this respectful language that most males or females seem to have a different kind of respect for, but in an equal amount of respect. It’s just like a grace – a way of being – that not all cultures have. Certainly, in the United States, they don’t. We don’t know how to greet each other at all. Some people shake hands, some people hug, some people don’t touch each other at all. Very awkward, you know, it’s so strange. But here, there’s just grace, I can’t think of any other word for it. And that’s a beautiful thing. You should be very proud.

Would your say your music is about more than just love and relationships?

Well, recently it’s been everything, which is why even the album was created. It’s interesting because when I make an album, it’s whatever I’m processing or learning in my life. That is what the album is about. Or whatever I’m experiencing at the time in my life. And I look back at all my albums and saw that, love and relationship is a common through life. But still I have yet to be master at love; I have yet to start a family, or have a long-lasting relationship. So that was something I really want to look at, and learn, and improve, and be better; be better at love, and just be love itself. So I took this project on, and at the same time that I was having these feelings, I saw that artwork (the new album cover) before I had written any song. And I thought, wow these are four fundamentals of building. They are the first things we even see as children; we were introduced these shapes. Yet, I had never seen them in that order before. It said that word ‘love’. I thought, wow. I’m just so amazed by this. I thought there are two reasons I should make an album about love based on, or because of, this artwork. One, we want to really duplicate that album as much as possible, right? I mean, you want to sell millions of copies. And you want to advertise it, and put posters up. And how cool is that, it even ends up as a digital graphic on your phone if you download it. What a cool way to spread the message of love in the world one more time – another message of love for a new generation. And if you can see love in that image, in those four shapes, it’s a choice that you’re making because they are just shapes. If you choose to see love, you always have the power to choose to see love in the world – in anyone, in anything, in an enemy, in a bad day, in a mirror. Love is a choice that we make. That’s one of the profound realizations I had in working on this album. It’s almost like the songs are just side projects, or side effects of living inside this journey to understand love. What I conclude love to be, now, is sharing. I think it’s best understood, best seen and felt when you simply share something. My being here in this interview is sharing because I love what I do. And I love that you love what you do, and that you’re going to share your passion in writing with someone who’s probably going to have a passion for reading about music or lifestyle or whatever. And it’s going to resonate with their love. It’s the sharing – this constantly sharing – that we pass on to each other. Or when we share resources, or energy, or when we volunteer, or feed other, or hug others, or give money to help an organization. Sharing, I find, is that best way for us to really truly experience love. It gets you out of your head, and your heart.

What’s with your new look?

You know, I don’t know. During my break between albums, I realized that it would grow if I didn’t cut it. So now it’s growing. It’s easier; it’s fun. Yeah, I would probably cut it one day, and people would go, “Oh no! it’s your new look!”

How do you balance your life having to go on tour for a long period of time?

Oh gosh, I don’t always. I don’t always balance my life. Sometimes I absolutely go crazy. And then I think, “Why am I going crazy?” But I do my best. I balance it by doing yoga, or some kind of physical activity. Traveling or touring is often sitting, having conversations, sitting on a plane, sitting in an airport, sitting in a van, sitting on a bus, you know, it’s a lot of just stagnant energy. So by doing yoga or some kind of physical activity, I can, as Bob Marley would say, “lively up yourself,” and get back into your head and generate some thoughts, some lyrics, and some ideas. And that, to me, is to help to keep balance between sitting. And in this practice, of being lively through yoga or sitting, is the balance that I can then apply to my whole life or to my entire day, whether it’s an hour of doing interviews, or an hour of not talking, or interacting with my band later to put the show together tonight. It all goes down to doing a pose in yoga, where you are forced to balance and keep yourself there for an extra minute. But you don’t want to, and your mind says, “I don’t wanna do it.” But your body says, ‘Just do it man, just do it’. And your body finally comes together, and hopefully you can live that way for the rest of the day and create that balance.

How do you maintain a relationship?

As for the rest of my life, how do I have family and all that--I don’t. My family is with me on the road. My family accepts that I’m here on the road. My family is a very special core group of people that I’ll stay in correspondence with. Right now, I’m doing good though. I’ve got a lot of amazing friends in my life – some very close ones that support my being here. So that way, it doesn’t feel like I’m missing anything somewhere else.

Can you tell us about the Jason Mraz foundation?

When I first started out, fifteen years ago, I was making absolutely no money, and it was through the generosity of friends and family that I had a rich quality of life. It kept me on my path so I could be the artist that I wanted to be. And now years later, thanks to music, which I’ve known to actually serve in many ways, I decided to take this spotlight, and redirect it on some stories of individuals and organizations out there that are doing their part, working to give a rich quality of life to those that are less fortunate. So I used the spotlight, the attention, the awareness, my resources and my money to create a foundation that supports these other programs. At the moment, I support about eight different charities inside the fund that is the Jason Mraz foundation. It covers a variety of organizations from animal preservation to human rights. You can find out more about that at jasonmraz.com/foundation . It has been a career highlight for me to actually go far beyond what I thought I would acquire or achieve as a songwriter, now that I can actually serve the world in profound ways.

Philippine Concerts

Concerts, gigs, live performances and other musical events, jason mraz special acoustic evening with toca rivera.

The majority of the tour will find Mraz teaming up with his longtime friend, percussionist Noel “Toca” Rivera, for a series of acoustic dates celebrating the tenth anniversary of their independently released classic, “LIVE AT JAVA JOE’S.” The tour will take the duo across the globe, from benefit concerts and festivals in the USA, Morocco and France, to shows at such iconic venues as Australia’s Sydney Opera House and New York’s Carnegie Hall. The tour will conclude in November in Mraz’s adopted hometown of San Diego.

Hailed as one of the modern era’s most gifted pop troubadours, Mraz has shared stages with percussionist Noel “Toca” Rivera for more than a decade. The two musicians first met back in 2000, when Mraz was just making his mark on the San Diego coffee house scene. Enthralled by the young songwriter’s free-flowing lyrical mastery, Rivera invited Mraz to join the eponymous trio he fronted alongside his brother Carlos. The group hit the road, travelling California’s highways and byways together in a beat-up Winnebago, inspiring Mraz’s classic song, “Dream Life of Rand McNally.” When Carlos decided to take time off, Jason and Toca continued to collaborate as a duo, earning acclaim and passionate audience responses wherever they performed. Mraz’s guitar and vocals match beautifully with Rivera’s intuitive djembe playing and the two maintain a long friendship and collaborative relationship, recording and touring together to this day.

“I dig the groove Toca lays down with his drum,” Mraz says, “and the delicate touch he finds on the harmonies. He’s like every member of the Dave Matthews Band and Boyz II Men rolled up in one prize wind-up teddy bear designed to beat a drum.”

Mraz of course went on to become a worldwide superstar, a multi-talented singer/songwriter who made pop history with the sensational single, “I’m Yours.” The track – featured on Jason’s RIAA platinum-certified album, “WE SING. WE DANCE. WE STEAL THINGS.” – was a momentous #1 smash, earning ASCAP’s 2010 “Song of the Year” award while also setting the record for the longest-running song in the 51-year history of Billboard’s “Hot 100.”
