Brought to this country by Showtime Management, the tour

2015 and Friday, 27 February 2015 followed by one Cape Town concert at Grand
Arena, Grand West on 01 March 2015. The

Jane. Booking opens at Computicket on
Thursday, 27 November 2014.
One of the world’s
hardest working and most beloved artists, Jason Mraz’s journey has propelled
him from the San Diego coffee house scene to arena, amphitheatres, and stadiums
all over the world. A two-time GRAMMY® Award winner and six-time nominee, Mraz
made pop history with his record-breaking classic single, “I’m Yours,” while
also earning platinum and multi-platinum certifications in more than 20
countries. Moreover, the San Diego-based troubadour has proven a truly diverse
creative presence. 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 and ardent support for LGBT equality. Though 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.
“YES!” marks what is perhaps the most unexpected and
accomplished collection of this musician’s already extraordinary career.
Highlighted by the first single, “Love Someone,” the album – which finds Mraz
teaming up with his longtime friends, Raining Jane, who will also accompany him
to Johannesburg and Cape Town, debuted #1 on the sales charts in 46 territories
around the world.
This year, Mraz made a conscious choice to perform in venues
smaller than the usual amphi-theatres and arenas. Mraz now looks forward to
getting to South Africa for more personalized shows and to interacting with his
fans. For up-to-the-minute information, please log on to
