Jason Mraz Announces New Tour Dates

GRAMMY Award winning musician/songwriter Jason Mraz added three new shows to his summer tour, “The Magical Mystical Radical Rhythmical Ride” – June 30 in Providence, RI at the Providence Performing Arts Center; July 2 in Lenox, MA with The Boston Pops and July 3 in Portsmouth, NH at The Music Hall.  

Mraz also announced funk/alt-pop band Ripe will support July 5 - July 13, while jazz guitarist Dr. Molly Miller, a member of Mraz's Superband, will open July 16-26 and August 1-10 with the Molly Miller Trio.

All dates on “The Mystical Magical Rhythmical Radical Ride” will feature a stage full of musicians, including longtime collaborators Raining Jane and Austin, TX-based Grooveline Horns, performing new pop tunes and Mraz fan favorites alike.

The show with The Boston Pops marks the third symphony show announced as part of the run: Mraz and The Superband will also perform at Red Rocks with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra on July 28 and return to The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park with the San Diego Symphony on August 11.  

Last month, Jason performed with eight San Diego nonprofits as part of Kaleidoscope, presented by the Jason Mraz Foundation at the California Center for the Arts in Escondido, CA. The Jason Mraz Foundation supports arts education and inclusivity, and the eight participating organizations – A Step Beyond, Banding Together, Diversionary Theatre, Monarch School, San Diego Young Artists Music Academy, Tap Fever Studios, Tierra Caliente Academy of Arts and Wheelchair Dancers Organization – all performed alongside Mraz at the two shows. The Foundation raised more than $80,000 through the events, and each organization received $10,000 in additional grants. 

Mraz's eighth and most recent studio album, Mystical Magical Rhythmical Radical Ride, marks a return to pop music. “I Feel Like Dancing,” the lead single, is a reminder to dance your own dance without fear, no matter what it looks like. “Songs appear out of a real necessity, and this song appeared as I struggled with identity and self worth in my mid-40s,” he notes. “And I have to truly dance like no one's watching.”

The song inspired Mraz to compete in Season 32 of “Dancing With The Stars,” where he finished in second place. Last month, Mraz reunited with Emmy Award-nominated singer/songwriter and composer Ingrid Michaelson for a brand new single, "Love Is.” The song, now streaming everywhere, marks the second collaboration for the pair, following “Christmas Valentine” in 2019.
