Born in Bridgeport, Connecticut and raised in Fairfield, Connecticut, he attended Berklee College of Music in Boston. He moved to Atlanta in 1997, where he refined his skills and gained a following, and he now lives in New York City. His first two studio albums, Room for Squares and Heavier Things, did well commercially, achieving multi-platinum status. In 2003, he won a Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Your Body Is a Wonderland."Mayer began his career performing mainly acoustic rock, but gradually began a transition towards the blues genre in 2005 by collaborating with renowned blues artists such as B. B. King, Buddy Guy, and Eric Clapton, and by forming the John Mayer Trio. The blues influence can be heard throughout his 2005 live album Try! with the John Mayer Trio and his third studio album Continuum, released in September 2006. At the 49th Annual Grammy Awards in 2007 Mayer won Best Pop Vocal Album for Continuum and Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Waiting on the World to Change". He released his fourth studio album, Battle Studies, in November 2009. His fifth album, Born & Raised, is expected to release on May 22, 2012. He has sold over 10 million albums in the U.S. and 20 million albums worldwide.

The discography of John Mayer, an American singer-songwriter and guitarist, consists of four studio albums, three live albums, two extended plays, twelve singles and two video albums. Even though it is not a solo album, it is worthy of mention that John Mayer collaborated with Pino Palladino and Steve Jordan on a Live album under the name of the John Mayer Trio. The album is called Try!.

A year after moving to Atlanta, Georgia and playing in local clubs, Mayer released the independent EP Inside Wants Out in 1999. This album, as well as continued performances, gained Mayer attention from the independent promotional record label Aware Records. Aware released his first full-length album, Room for Squares, in 2001, and when Columbia Records acquired Aware the following year, the album was repackaged and promoted as a major label release. The major label "debut" went on to sell over 4 million units in the United States alone, and more internationally. Mayer followed up by releasing a live album, Any Given Thursday, in both audio CD and DVD format, which featured many songs from Room for Squares, as well as covers and previously unreleased originals.

Mayer's second full-length studio album, Heavier Things, was released in 2003 and went on to sell over 2 million units in the United States. Again, Mayer released a live album of songs culled from the album's promotional tour with the title As/Is. After a brief recording hiatus, during which Mayer ventured to form the blues group John Mayer Trio, he returned to the studio and released his third full-length studio album Continuum in 2006. Three months after Continuum's release, Mayer released an EP of demos from Continuum's early sessions entitled The Village Sessions, named after the studio it was recorded in, the Village Recorder in Los Angeles. Mayer's fourth full-length studio album, Battle Studies, was released on November 17, 2009.

In addition to Mayer's solo work, he has worked extensively with other musicians and artists in genres ranging from R&B and hip-hop (with artists such as Common, Alicia Keys and Kanye West), country music (with the Dixie Chicks), blues (with Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton, B.B. King), and jazz (with Herbie Hancock, John Scofield, and Chris Botti). He was featured in "Beat It" by Fall Out Boy to play a guitar solo. He has sold over 10 million albums in the U.S. and 20 million albums worldwide. ... (more)

"The ‘Gravity’ singer told Complex magazine in 2018 that it was after Drake’s 30th birthday party and a six day hangover than he decided to stop drinking. ‘I looked out the window and I went, “OK, John, what percentage of your potential would you like to have? Because if you say you'd like 60, and you'd like to spend the other 40 having fun, that's fine,”’ he told Complex. ‘”But what percentage of what is available to you would you like to make happen? There's no wrong answer. "
