Grammy-winning musician Jason Mraz will re-release his first ever album, Live & Acoustic, this fall in honor of its 20th anniversary. To celebrate, Mraz will hit the road with longtime collaborator Toca Rivera, who has performed with Mraz since his coffee shop days. The trek includes a stop at the North Charleston Performing Arts Center on November 27th.
Released in 2001, the album encapsulates Mraz's early but formative days performing in the San Diego coffee shop scene. Live & Acoustic (20th Anniversary Edition) will include two previously unreleased bonus tracks and will be offered on vinyl for the first time. A vinyl pre-order starts today at Mraz's site, and the album will be available on November 5th.
“ Live & Acoustic celebrates the poetry, harmony, and humor that became the foundation for my entire career,” s aid Mraz. “ It’s not only fun to replay and reimagine that material; I believe it’s important to remember and honor where we came from and how we got here. Add to it our buddy from the coffee shop days, Gregory Page, whose most recent album earned the highest praise at the 2021 San Diego Music Awards, and it's sure to be a wonderful night of music and laughter.”
Tickets for the North Charleston show go on sale Friday, September 10th at 10 am. Get tickets at Ticketmaster.com, LiveNation.com, or at the North Charleston Coliseum Advance Ticket Office.
