Jason Mraz
Jason Mraz was born and raised in
Virginia. Though he did not pick up the
guitar until the age of 18, his musical appetite was strong. After a brief stint studying
musical theater in
New York, he moved to
Los Angeles. There he became a hit on the Southern California club scene, playing with percussionist Toca Rivera. His clear, strong tenor voice and easygoing, optimistic lyrics gained critical and popular acclaim in
2003 when his first single, "The Remedy (I Won't Worry)" began getting regular play on
radio,
MTV and
VH1, boosting the sales of his debut release, Waiting for My Rocket to Come. Since then, Mraz has played with the likes of
Bob Dylan,
Dave Matthews Band, Paula Cole, and
Jewel.
