Our Review

It's obvious that Jason Mraz understands the rabid cravings of the true music fan. With his 2010 live EP Life Is Good, Mraz not only bestows fans with a jazz-infused take on fan-favorite "Coyotes," but he also gives up four previously unreleased songs. A breezy cover of Luc & The Lovingtons' "Freedom Song" opens with buoyant reggae rhythms as Mraz waxes coastal over soulful backing singers. If you've ever found yourself in Tijuana on a Saturday night, the hyper-festive "San Disco Reggaefornia" will make perfect sense. Somewhat of a departure for Mraz, the tune is an insta-hit influenced by both Miami Sound Machine's 1985 hit, "Conga" and Eminem, as Mraz busts some meter-perfect rhymes — that's right, he actually raps on this one. The familiar sounding "Up" name-checks Gene Wilder before Mraz drops Willy Wonka references while the tune tastefully taps into his own "Live High" from 2008's We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things. "What Mama Say" is the strongest (and most fun) cut here, sounding inspired by the Pointer Sisters' contributions to Sesame Street in the '70s.

굿..

Fantastic as usual. (5 stars)
Jason is one of the few artists left who sound so much better live than on any studio recording.

This album downloaded weird though, 4 of the songs downloaded as Tristan prettyman songs and I have to go to her on my artists on my iPhone to play the album. All 5 songs also downloaded into separate albums for each song and not 1 album for all 5 songs.

Great preview....... (5 stars)
The only bad thing about this creation is that its an EP. It makes waiting for the LP that much more desirable. "Up" has a great vibe to it, and the message is even more appealing. I love "coyotes", as he is always tweaking some part of that song, then again, he does with all of songs.
Over all, its a nice introduction to his full album that is supposed to come out. Stongly encouraged!

Biography

Jason Mraz hails from Mechanicsville, Virginia, where the singer/songwriter grew up amidst the sounds of the Dave Matthews Band and local roots musicians the Agents of Good Roots. However, it was Mraz's interest and participation in musical theater that served as his first introduction to music. Following high school, he moved to New York to attend the American Musical and Dramatic Academy, but dropped out a year later when he took up the guitar and began to focus on songwriting....
