John Mayer Born and Raised Tour

Now that John Mayer has recuperated from major vocal cord stress, he is set to release his fifth studio solo album, Born and Raised, on May 22nd. The record was produced with the assistance of legendary producer Don Was. And quite naturally, Mayer has announced a tour to coincide with the record's release. Kacey Musgraves will be opening for Mayer and expect a contingent of Veterans at each show. That's because Mayer is partnering once again with NCIRE-The Veterans Health Research Institute to raise funds for that organization. The Veterans Health and Integration Program is a civilian / military partnership providing support to military personnel transitioning from combat duty to civilian life. Just purchase a third-row seat for John's 2012 tour and a portion for to benefit returning veterans. Win-win for all.
