Not content with soft pop, alternative rock or jazz genre, Born and Raised marks a move to a more stripped back country sound and the multiple Grammy award winner sounds better than ever claiming it's the "most honest" he's ever been.
My top tracks are 'Shadow Days' (supposedly written about his relationship with Jennifer Aniston) and 'Queen of California' and 'Something About Olivia' which is one of the more light-hearted songs.
Listening to the beautiful music Mayer makes you would never guess it's the same asshole who has dated half of Hollywood, but whatever has brought on this new sound, it suits him! Mayer is more interesting to listen to than he's ever been!
Born and Raised is out now!
