Music crush: John Mayer



I've always been a big fan of blues/rock musician John Mayer and have really liked all his albums so far ( Room for Squares, Heavier Things, Continuum and Battle Studies). So, I was pretty excited to hear that his fifth album, Born & Raised, will be released later this month (22 May in US). 

It seems that John has gone through some changes between his last album and his new one (and no, its not just that he is rocking more hair and a hat). Apparently he has moved to Montana, did some soul searching and had vocal surgery (You should check out his latest interview with Ellen over here). I'm interested to hear how these life changes are going to come through in his music.

The first single released from the upcoming album is 'Shadow Days'. It's pretty cool ( bit of a country vibe), you can check out the video for it below:

  1. Big smiles. I'm a huge John Mayer fan. Huge. Not too fond of Shadow Days. I'm all like "WTF, John. Why you going all country on us???"

  8. I listened to his song linked on your blog last night and it's really cool! Defo havent stumbled across his music before though... perhaps it's not as big in the UK (or I am just totally uncultured... probably the latter haha!)
