John Clayton Mayer[1] (/ˈmeɪ.ər/; born October 16, 1977) is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist, and producer.[2] He was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, and raised in nearby Fairfield. He attended Berklee College of Music in Boston, but disenrolled and moved to Atlanta in 1997 with Clay Cook. Together, they formed a short-lived two-man band called Lo-Fi Masters. After their split, Mayer continued to play local clubs-refining his skills and gaining a following. After his appearance at the 2001 South by Southwest Festival, he was signed to Aware Records, and then Columbia Records, which released his first EP, Inside Wants Out. His following two full-length albums-Room for Squares (2001) and Heavier Things (2003)-did well commercially, achieving multi-platinum status. In 2003, he won the Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for the single "Your Body Is a Wonderland".
Though Mayer started his career mainly performing acoustic rock, he began moving towards the blues genre that had originally influenced him as a musician. By 2005, he was collaborating with blues artists such as B. B. King, Buddy Guy, and Eric Clapton. Forming the John Mayer Trio, he released a live album in 2005 called Try!, and his third studio album Continuum in 2006. Both albums received wide critical acclaim, and Continuum earned Mayer a 2007 Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album. He also won Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Waiting on the World to Change". That album was followed by Battle Studies in 2009, a return to pop, with a number-one grossing tour.
After having several controversial incidents with the media, Mayer withdrew from public life in 2010 and began work on a follow-up album, called Born and Raised, that would draw inspiration from the 1970s pop music of Laurel Canyon. However, the discovery of a granuloma on his vocal cords delayed the release of the album until May 2012, and ultimately forced him to cancel the planned tour. Even so, the album enjoyed a generally favorable reception, though was less commercially successful than his previous work. After extensive treatments for his vocal problems-and a two-year hiatus-Mayer began performing as a singer again in January 2013, and that year released the album, Paradise Valley. The album is named for where he lives in Montana and features country music influences. By 2014, he had sold a total of over 20 million albums worldwide.[3] After developing an interest in the Grateful Dead and connecting with Bob Weir, Mayer formed Dead & Company with three former Grateful Dead musicians.[4] The band's performances have been well-received,[5][6] with tours in 2015, 2016,[5] and 2017.[7]
Mayer's secondary career pursuits extend to television hosting, comedy, and writing; he has authored columns for magazines such as Esquire. He supports various causes and has performed at charity benefits. He is a watch aficionado (with a collection he values in the "tens of millions" of dollars), and has been on the jury at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève. He currently lives in Montana. His latest song is "Love on the Weekend".[8]
Continuum... right up there with one of the greatest albums EVER... Lifetime award someday...
yep, absolute gold
Maybe not in general but in terms of blues compositions probably the best 💯
@@swinephrog6428 Continuum it's not only blues, it's pop in a big part.
Absolutely!!! 💯💯💯💯💯Agree
Agreed although my favorite JM album is room for squares , continuum is his best album and its just an all time album.
"It's just..." *Proceeds to blow our mortal minds with his behemoth right hand technique*
But seriously man, playing it is one thing. This man actually fucking WROTE that. How do you write something that complicated yet so easy and pleasing on the ears? JM is a musical genius who will go down as one of the greatest musicians of all time and for sure the greatest of our time.
Also he compressed those quarter-life-themed reflections into one song，amazing ！
He is the reason I pick my guitar back up
TRUE AS FUCK
Swayzie Express he is the reason i started playing :”)
He is reason why I'm practicing few hours and think about break but pick up guitar again
I KNOW RIGHT?!?!?!?
He’s the reason I put it down
his picking technique is unreal. Still struggling with this song and Neon. It's ridiculous
neon is insanity
Neon is great fun! But damn its taxing on the mind!
neon is one of the hardest songs right?
Agreed. The most difficult part for me is the thumb placement on the E. It's been probably 10 years since I learned it, and that's still a struggle.
The complexity lies within his strumming techniques
Why is no one acknowledging the fact that he played Heart of Life too :c
Dickybutt McPoopyPants I acknowledge and praise that someone else wrote it so I didn’t have to. Amazing technique.
Dickybutt McPoopyPants I noticed that as well. They are kinda simaler with that thumb slap and I think he wrote them both round the same time
Lol the thumb slap-strum is a signature tbh
also yeah both of those songs came from the Continuum album
IKR!!!!
*The Heart of Life
I like him so much better now he's in his 40's. Much nicer person
Hare Krishna wow he is! Still thought he was 30
Every young buck wants to wild out in their young days my man, it can ruin us or we can learn from it.
That transition from stop this train to heart of life was was so cool like I didn’t even expect it
I mean this with 100% love and respect, but John Mayer is a freak. Having that much control with the picking hand isn't natural
Lots of practice. It is very much possible but it is very very hard. I’ve been working on Stop This Train for like 3 months and the only reason is because I’m trying to perfect the thumb slap thingy he does 😂
I thought my picking hand was just uncoordinated, but considering how many people are also having trouble with it I feel less bad.
Dan Hashbrown I’m working on this song too! It’s crazy. I notice He’s kind of playing 2 melodys at once at the complicated part. Insane technique - the only dude who has it right on youtube is paul david’s
Wait til you hear Tommy Emmanuel...haha
It’s only when you actually learn guitar to truly Realize How Great of a Guitarist this guy is
0:40 "anatomically" Bro he's got hands the size of basketballs and even he struggles a bit with the spread. Nice. XD
I think he was saying he doesn't struggle with the spread coz he's able to use his thumb like that haha
Magooch86 True. Different meaning, you're right. It's hard for a lot of people to fret like that. I just use my index finger and really stretch to reach 7th with my pinky. 😌
thought it was a typo when I first read the tabs
He's also using an electric.
I'd love to see him try that on a classical guitar :p
I just tune the A string down to G cause I have baby hands
God he writes such amazing riffs.
The slap flick thing did become a trade mark, but it’s so effective especially on acoustic it’s like an instant snare! I must confess to “ripping it off” at times in composition
he wasn't the first to do it. he claims he is but i've heard grateful dead tapes from like 1972 where Jerry garcia incorporates that technique. kind of ironic john is in dead and company now haha
NYCYABBER710 I think he was one of the ones to popularize it, no?
Played a lot of his songs, it's addictive, started trying it with classical gas, broke my brain...
@@AznUzer I mean he's probably one of the most popular artists to do it, but fingerstyle acoustic guitar players have been doing stuff like this for far longer than John has been alive. For him to try and claim it as a "me" thing is hilarious.
Wow sounds like 2 guitars crazy
It's so awesome how he's just like a regular dude here.
If you are a guitar player, you know how hard it is to play stop this train and he does that so effortlessly!
1:23 that transition to the heart of life is amazing. Hes freaking talented!
When he started playing heart of life 😭😭
he's unbelievably talented. it's almost ridiculous. I love him.
This and neon took me a few months.They are hard to learn but once you get it there's nothing like it... Plus it opens other doors
That simultaneous slap and strum is unreal... still struggling with this one.
Always brings a shead of tear to my eye 🥺
Came for Stop this Train , stayed for Heart Of life
How good he is just messing around is insane.
He cracks me up man.
Ugh this guy ! How is he just so good.
Truly brilliant. This man is a living legend
"that I can do anatomically"... Sounds about right.. you need crazy long hands for that part
This inspires me to take up playing guitar. I play a bit of piano but I'm always bummed that I can't take a piano camping. The videos are great! Thank you
I love John Mayer:(
half of the video is heart of my life
Brilliant song.
beautiful PRS
Thank you!!
I play this song like a straight hillbilly.
I play it like im on a banjo.
cracks everyone up.
Could listen all day to you play brother
I could watch this guy play for hours
I think this strumming technique will forever be a mystery to me...
He's using only two fingers - thumb and first finger. A little bit like slapping on a base. Nothing of a mystery ;)
If you search "paul Davids john mayer slap technique" i found it very usefull
Idk why everyone is saying it's like insanely hard. It's really hard, but I learned it in a few days. Been playing for a year and a half
It's not strumming... it's picking while using the thump to keep a rhythm... don't think of the slapping the strings as one more thing in there to fuck you up... it's actually there to help you if anything. Once you get used to that kind of playing, it becomes hard to stop sometimes, you want to keep mute hitting to keep time but sometimes a song does not call for that and can be distracting
fuck that strectch man my little girl hands can´t do that so i just play the octave fifth fret of the d string :) that picking technique though took months to get down. freaking genius
Miss when his lives were like this with no studio audience
Please play this Thursday night!!!
Wow D without a Hat was one of the best insplanations I’ve ever hear inslpained
the little chicka and then strum right after is more impressive than anything i have ever done
Love this song john is so gifted 👌👌
love you!
Hey I got this going nice to see you ❤❤❤
John Mayer main gitar udah kaya ngupil, asik bangett 🙃
A Genius
That's great playing
thank you!! amazing!!!
This talent though... just insane
Yeah. the talent you see is a lot of practice and work. Everybody has to stop saying people are talented, it's just hard work and passion.
Oh my forever crush ❤️😭
i love one (1) man
Thought he was fliiping at first 😂
Genius, thanks buddy!!
this video is savage asf😂
Learned both of em today🙂
Tomo is his teacher
my heart went: 🥰😍
Stop this Train...smh....so my mood and fave track from Continuum
This is so awesome!!!
Yo he’s such a god at guitar
I feel ego took so much by the end of the video. I’m not saying it’s not a john mayer thing, but it’s a natural thing to do once you’re playing acoustic by youself, I’ve been travelling for long and doing those sort of things are quite natural.
You Rock John >;-)
Damn it i tried this in 2017 and its still hard 2018 present loving the song
This is my fav song ever. I’ve been listening to it as long as I can remember. I would have my earbuds in, hear this song, and take them out just to listen to it, and I never do that
Terms of live performances he did the best on Neon though
i’ve finally mastered playing this song exactly like he does with the slap and everything. it was def a struggle at first but after playing it damn near everyday for months it gets so much easier. And it’s def not as hard as it is complicated if that makes sense
Same! Feels good once you get it. Neon is still kicking my ass though 😂
One you learn Neon this song is a breeze
Truth. First Mayer song I learned to play was Neon. Rest come super easy now.
Here, mere mortal, gaze upon true technique
Anyone notice how he is playing left handed and still playing excellent? He normally Jams right handed.
Is this a joke?
Is he not. If you follow the camera angle it should be left handed. I film myself all the time using front faced camera and it doesn't reverse anything.
@@Aaron-bb9rt It's reversed
He just played BOTH parts.🤯
Que raiva dele kkk sz
I'm twisted now too
is that guitar neck tiny or are his hands just crazy? I cannot reach that stretch for the life of me.
Ona Onye
It's his hands. And you can do it too, just keep trying. I succeeded
he has huge hands lol, just like srv and jimi hendrix
Jst keep going youl make it. Do some finger stretching exercises
No you cant, holy shit dudes do you even anatomy? He is tall as fuck, he has big hands, that's why he can do that. Some things you can do, some you cant, live with that
Gabriel Brandão i have big hands long fingers probably wjy i like playing guitar and piano
and here i am bitching about my fingers hurting from just playing A
Did he say "you do that tomo"
Tomo was his berklee teacher, I'm pretty sure he uses thus technique a bit
so easy...what you think about....lol....but very beautifull melody...could lovely play guitar....or bass....or ....simply listen live your songs...is also
What I'd give to has this shot landscape/horizontal.
Did he started playing heart of life in the middle of the video😂
he is using 2 fingers to pick and some of his chords needs extra long fingers. thats why im a fan
The old Dsus2
so cute love you!
Did anyone else here "there's only 1 way 2 say 3 words for you..."?
gibe me all of his skills please...god please....
😊
Dont try that thing where he plays the third fret E and the lower e on the 7 i repeat dont (real i dislocated my finger😂)
Trying to learn this song from this video and other sources, fun fact about me I have slightly larger than average fingers and my thumb’s pretty big as well, but John’s purely anatomically stretching is way to hard for me to accomplish
I just through my guitar out of the window...
Anyone half expecting him to break into who says? (so close to stop this train), or even, albeit probably too recent, shadow days?
Thought I herd a little of Hart of Life in there.
Curious to context of the blackmail comment. Makes me think John gets blackmailed in the regular.
you can find the full video on youtube he was making a joke about when he mispells something on instagram
Can totally play stop this train "the right way" on a tiny first act guitar...lol
0:38 and this is why I hate/love you, John.
0:38 !!!!?!!
meanwhile I'm still at the D without the hat.
D without the hat?! What does it mean?!
This guy and Hendrix keep me from wanting to quit guitar and arctic monkeys 😂
Was Tomo in the stream?
John Mayer could teach a bird to play guitar
Ps I’m the Bird
man, his hands are so fucking huge lmao I can only play the intro because of my little hands
fucking guys got some mitts on him, his thumb is the size of my forearm
The D without the top note is very familiar to you commuters out there lol
