JOHN MAYER - Montreal, February 17th, 2010

 
Gillett Entertainment Group is proud to announce that John Mayer will perform at the Bell Centre on February 17, 2010.  There is no substitute to seeing John Mayer perform live and the release of Battle Studies later this month will kick off a North American tour beginning February 8th.  

Battle Studies is the fourth studio album from the seven-time Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter/guitar player/producer who sold nearly 12.5 million albums worldwide and incorporates the warmth, melodies and simplicity of 70's and 80's California rock and pop. Battle Studies is a confessional, relaxed and liberated album recorded in a private home in California where Mayer lived and worked over the course of six months before wrapping at the famed Capitol Studios in Los Angeles. The album was co-produced by John Mayer and Steve Jordan and was released on November 17, 2009 on Columbia Records.

The consistency with which John Mayer combines word craft and melody has earned him rarefied status in popular culture as a genuine and respected songwriter and musician. (He has played with Eric Clapton, BB King, Buddy Guy, Herbie Hancock, Dixie Chicks, Jay-Z…)

In May 2007, Time Magazine placed John Mayer on their Time 100 list of the most influential contemporary thinkers, leaders, artists and entertainers. For two consecutive years, Rolling Stone Magazine featured John Mayer on the cover of their annual "Guitar" issue - first with the May 2008 "Living Guitar Legends" issue and then as part of February 2007's "Guitar Heroes" round-ups featuring Mayer with peers and icons alike.
