John Mayer discography
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The discography of American singer-songwriter and guitarist John Mayer consists of eight studio albums, seven live albums, three compilation albums, two video albums, four extended plays, twenty-five singles and seventeen music videos. Born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, Mayer moved to Atlanta, Georgia and began playing in local clubs in 1998.[1] He released the extended play Inside Wants Out in September of the following year.[2] Inside Wants Out, as well as continued performances, brought Mayer to the attention of independent record label Aware Records.[1] Aware later signed Mayer and released his full-length debut studio album, Room for Squares, in June 2001.[2] When Columbia Records acquired Aware, the album was re-released in September and promoted as a major label release.[2] Following its re-release, Room for Squares peaked at number eight on the United States Billboard 200.[3] The album has since sold over five million copies in the United States, and was certified five times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[4][5] Three singles were released from Room for Squares, two of which became top 40 hits on the US Billboard Hot 100: "No Such Thing" and "Your Body Is a Wonderland".[6] Heavier Things, Mayer's second studio album, was released in September 2003. It topped the Billboard 200 and attained a double platinum certification from the RIAA.[3][5] Heavier Things produced three singles: "Bigger Than My Body", "Clarity" and "Daughters". "Daughters" later won the award for Song of the Year at the 47th Grammy Awards.[7]

After a brief recording hiatus, during which he ventured to form the blues group John Mayer Trio, Mayer resumed his solo career and released his third studio album Continuum in September 2006.[2] Continuum reached a peak of number two on the Billboard 200.[3] "Waiting on the World to Change", the album's first single, peaked at number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and garnered commercial success in countries such as Australia and Canada.[6][8][9] Battle Studies followed in November 2009, topping the Billboard 200 and being certified platinum by the RIAA.[3][5] The album featured the singles "Who Says", "Heartbreak Warfare" and "Half of My Heart", all of which reached the top 40 in the United States.[6] Mayer released his fifth studio album Born and Raised in May 2012; it became his third number-one album on the Billboard 200.[3] His sixth studio album Paradise Valley was released on August 20, 2013, bringing forth 3 singles: "Paper Doll", "Wildfire" and "Who You Love" featuring Katy Perry. Mayer's seventh studio album, The Search for Everything, was released in April 2017.[10]
Mayer has sold 16 million albums in the United States as of January 2015.[11]
