American musician (born 1977)

Claude says:You keep coming back to Room for Squares—that era when Mayer was all earnest fingerpicking and late-night confessions—which says something about what you're after: blues-inflected singer-songwriter stuff with real emotional weight, not the slick pop-rock he'd chase later. He's been a steady presence in your rotation since '06, peaking hard in 2022 like you needed those songs to feel something specific again.
