Jason Mraz Has a Way with Words, and We Love to Listen!

Why He Is Famous:

Jason Mraz picked up his first guitar when he was 18 years old, and it’s been a sweet ride ever since. Quickly becoming a hit after playing Southern California clubs, Jason’s first album, “Waiting for My Rocket to Come,” went platinum. Since then, Mraz has earned himself a Grammy nomination for his album, “Mr. A-Z”, and has toured with the likes of Alanis Morissette and the Rolling Stones. Mraz has recently returned from a short hiatus in May, releasing his new album, “We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.”

Why We Like Him:

In an industry filled with lip-syncing and superficial talent, it’s always refreshing to listen to something that isn’t the usual pre-scripted stuff. Known for his entertaining live performances and clever lyrics, singer/songwriter Jason Mraz is making us smile again with his latest album. His music is the feel good kind, with lyrics that are just as empowering as they are original. The sound is eclectic, to say the least, and it sounds like a mix of folk, jazz, and rock with the catchiness of pop. We love Jason’s duet with Colbie Caillat, “Lucky,” from his latest album, “We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.” Here are some feel good lyrics we love from Jason’s new song, “Make It Mine”:

“Wake up everyone
How can you sleep at a time like this
Unless the dreamer is the real you
Listen to your voice
The one that tells you
to taste past the tip of
your tongue
Leap and the net will appear”
