Jason Mraz to Perform at The Hollywood Bowl This June

Multiple-GRAMMY® Award-winning singer/songwriter Jason Mraz has announced plans for a very special birthday show at the famed Hollywood Bowl, marking Mraz's third headline show at the venue following two sold-out appearances there. "Jason Mraz & His Superband - The Birthday Party And Concert At The Hollywood Bowl," will take place on Mraz's birthday, June 23rd.

In a message to fans, Mraz wrote:

When I was 21, I dropped out of college to pursue music.

I accepted my fate that I would likely become a starving artist. But I didn't plan on starving. I was too hungry and too naive to think I would fail. Music is a romance, and the pursuit of it would be half the fun.

To let myself off the hook and be unfazed by any chance of failure, I told myself I would go for it until I was 40. I gave myself permission to be a beginner until then. And that If I hadn't "made it" by 40, at least I'll have gifted myself the time. And at least by then, with all that experience, I'd probably be able to rock. Those were my words. I'd probably be able to rock.

Now nearly 40, my heart is filled with gratitude - to my younger Self for dreaming an unreasonable dream; to all the kindred spirits who married their beautiful music to mine; to those who gave me a round of applause or a couch for music and I to sleep on.

Together we made it happen. I'm turning 40. And I'm ready to rock.

See you at the show.

Hailed by The New York Times as "part Jack Johnson, part Eckhart Tolle," the San Diego-based troubadour's journey has propelled him from the local coffee house scene to arenas, amphitheaters, and stadiums all over the world. Along the way, he has earned accolades including 2 GRAMMY® Awards among 6 nominations, a prestigious Hal David Songwriter Hall of Fame Award, Teen Choice and People's Choice awards, as well as diamond, multi-platinum or platinum certifications in numerous territories for his various releases. A dedicated surfer, farmer/gardener, filmmaker, and photographer, Mraz is first and foremost a committed global citizen. His impassioned social activism and philanthropic efforts span wide-ranging environmental advocacy, arts in education and long-time support for LGBT equality. Through it all, Jason Mraz continually confirms and celebrates music's myriad forms and miraculous power, inspiring and delighting his countless fans around the world he calls home.

In the last year, Mraz has been gearing up to release new material - writing and recording, playing small solo pop-up shows trying out new songs for fans around the world, as well as headlining festivals in South America. Look for new music in 2017.
