Jason Mraz is an incredibly talented and popular American singer and songwriter. Mraz was interested in music from a very young age, playing and singing with an R&B band at the age of thirteen in his hometown of Mechanicsville, Virginia. He continued to be involved in music while growing up. Mraz performed regularly in high school musicals and continued his study of music at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York City. While in school he learned to play the guitar and he says it changed his life. He dropped out of school and spent all day in Central Park learning to play guitar from anyone that would teach him. Eventually he moved to San Diego and landed a gig playing at a coffee shop where he played to ever growing crowds. A local radio station picked up Mraz’s music and played some of his demos on air. Soon enough the record companies began to court him. The rest is history. By the time his second album Mr. A-Z was released he had worldwide success.
Jason Mraz’s style of music is hard to define but could be best described as pop folk. He has a smooth melodic voice that he uses in a rhythmic and almost instrumental way and it meshes perfectly with his laid back style of guitar playing. His influences come from the oldies he listened to as a child, the pop music he enjoyed growing up with and he specifically gives credit to the band Dave Mathews. Jason Mraz’s low-key style music is also a reflection of his personality.
