John Mayer has always been one of favorite singers and song writers. I began enjoying his music when my sister introduced I find his voice very enchanting and I'm always in the mood to listen to John Mayer. He has songs for all of my moods. If I am having a bad day he has songs that can always cheer me up and make me feel better. I think Mayers career path is especially interesting and there is many things I didn't know about him before I began researching.

Mayers career began mainly focused on rock that he performed acoustically. In the early 2000s he began to move into the blues genre. Blues artists B.B. King, Buddy Guy, and Eric Clapton collaborated with Mayer as he progressed into the blues genre. He preformed his blues songs with his trio, The John Mayer Trio. The John Mayer Trio is a blues rock band including John Mayer as the singer-songwriter and guitarist, Pine Palladino as the bassist and Steve Jordan as the drummer. The Trio released the album "Try" which was their only live album. The album was released by Colombia Record on November 22, 2005. The album was very successful and was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards. 

Mayer created the album "Continuum", releasing the first single "Waiting on the World To Change". This song was the third most downloaded song of the week after being released July 11, 2006. A month later, Mayer released the entire album on Los Angeles radio. He preformed two songs from the album, "Waiting on the World to Change" and "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room", on the TV show CSI. Later that year Mayer was nominated for five Grammy Awards. He won Best Pop Song with Vocal for "Waiting on the World to Change" and Best Pop Album for Continuum.

Mayer named the album Continuum a year before the bid debut. Mayer wrote, "I'm obsessed with time lately, constantly crunching the numbers to get some sense of where I stand in the continuum."
