The Search for Everything, his eighth album, was loosely centered on the subject of a breakup. In July 2021, Mayer released Sob Rock, a new album influenced by the soft rock from the 1980s.
The lead single, “Last Train Home,” and a music video were available on June 4. On July 16, 2021, the album and “Shot In The Dark” music video were made public. The previously released singles “I Guess I Just Feel Like,” “New Light,” and “Carry Me Away” were all on the tracklist. The production of “Carry Me Away” was somewhat changed to reflect the 1980s feel of the album.
Will Lavin of NME gave Mayer’s most recent album a four-star rating and applauded his ability to make fun of himself in a satirical song.
John Mayer also pursues side careers in television presenting, comedy, and writing; he has written essays for publications including Esquire. He has performed at charity events and supports several organizations. He contributes to the watch website Hodinkee, is on the jury for the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève, and is a watch enthusiast with a collection he values in the “tens of millions” of dollars.
