John Mayer Wants To Bring Music To The People

Geoff Carter of the Las Vegas Weekly chatted with John Mayer ahead of his show at The Join (August 20). Mayer says despite praise heaped on him by Rolling Stone, Elton John, and others, he’s not fazed by the success. “All you have to do is bring music to people, and they’ll decide whether they like it or not,” says Mayer. “If an artist has a chance to have his music brought to people and they say, ‘No, thank you,’ that’s great. But when there’s a bunch of people walkin’ around who haven’t heard a bunch of records that if they had heard, they would love—there’s something wrong.”
