John Mayer


"One of the best things you can do for yourself as a person is to practice having no opinion about most things you hear or see." - John Mayer



John Mayer, the singer and song writer of our generation has been famous for his blues rock and acoustic genres of music since the early 2000's. His soulful sounding voice became publicly known after signing with Aware Records in 2000. Most people know him for his most popular hits, "Your Body Is A Wonderland" and "Waiting on the World to Change." His appearances on talk shows like  the Ellen DeGeneres show and his past relationships with the famous singers, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry also brought John Mayer into the public eye in a big way. He has won many awards and is now a common household name. Aside from his musical talents, he is also an aspiring writer and producer. John Mayer will always be on my go-to playlist when I want something calm and relaxing to listen to. He has a beautiful voice that would brighten anybody's day.
