Sold Out (In Stereo)

A high-energy acoustic set capturing the raw, rhythmic wit of a pre-fame Mraz. Percussive guitar and djembe lock into a soulful, coffee-shop groove.

The sound of a room. You can hear the ice clinking in glasses and the close-mic'd slap of palms on a djembe. It is a document of a performer who has not yet been polished by a major label, relying entirely on his ability to hold a room with just six strings and a lightning-fast tongue. The energy is infectious, moving from soulful crooning to rapid-fire rhythmic delivery that blurs the line between folk and hip-hop. This is the definitive sound of the early 2000s acoustic boom, stripped of all artifice.

Moments Worth Listening For
The moment in 1000 Things where the guitar drops into a heavy rhythmic slap and the crowd starts clapping along in perfect sync.
The playful, improvised vocal run during You and I Both that stretches a single syllable into a multi-octave acrobatics display.
The seamless transition from a comedic monologue about life in San Diego into the soulful, earnest opening chords of Curbside Prophet.
