VIDEO: Jason Mraz Shares New HAVE IT ALL Single + Video

Multiple GRAMMY® Award winner Jason Mraz has announced today's release of his eagerly anticipated new single. "Have It All" is available now at all digital music retailers and streaming services.

"Have It All" was written by Mraz with David Hodges (Christina Perri, Kelly Clarkson) and JKash (Maroon 5, Charlie Puth, Meghan Trainor) in collaboration with his friends in Raining Jane (Mona Tavakoli, Chaska Potter, Mai Bloomfield, and Becky Gebhardt), and produced by Andrew Wells. The track was originally conceived after Mraz received and translated a blessing from a Buddhist monk during a moving visit to Myanmar in 2012. However, current events compelled him to bring "Have It All" fully to life at last.

"The world had changed a lot since 2012," Mraz says. "More people are marching for their freedoms and equality; to be seen and heard. Activism is back in style. I wrote a lot of frustrated, angry, even sad songs between then and now, but nothing I wanted to come forward with; nothing I wanted to sing. 'Have It All' stood out as a song with a hopeful message to help me heal and move forward; a song with a message of generosity - the antithesis of despondency; a song bestowed to me by translating a message from a monk. It's a blessing disguised as a rap song and it's meant to be paid-forward and shared."

"Have It All" is joined by a colorful companion video, streaming now at Mraz's official YouTube channel (WATCH). Directed by longtime collaborator Darren Doane ("I'm Yours," "Make It Mine," "Lucky"), the visual captures the song's bright spirit with a stroll through Mraz's hometown of Richmond, VA, joined by students from the School of the Performing Arts in the Richmond Community (SPARC), as well as students from the Richmond area Turnaround Arts schools, plus actors Katie Grober (Waitress) and Greg Grunberg (Alias, Heroes).

"Have It All" heralds Mraz's upcoming North American summer tour, "GOOD VIBES." The tour - which sees Mraz joined by his SuperBand and featuring special guest Brett Dennen - begins Wednesday, July 25th in Grand Rapids, MI at Meijer Gardens, and continues through early September (see attached itinerary).

Prior to "GOOD VIBES," Mraz - who recently concluded his acclaimed Broadway debut run in the hit musical, Waitress - has set a pair of very special concert appearances, beginning with INSPIRE 2018, presented by Sands Cares and set for May 18th at The Venetian Theatre in Las Vegas, NV. All proceeds from concert ticket sales will be donated to the Marty Hennessy Inspiring Children Foundation and Nevada Partnership for Homeless Youth.
