En 2003, ganó un premio Grammy en la categoría de mejor interpretación vocal pop masculina por la canción "Your Body Is a Wonderland".

Comenzó su carrera tocando rock gospel acústico, acercándose poco a poco hacia el género del blues, llegando a colaborar en 2005 con artistas como B. B. King, Buddy Guy y Eric Clapton y formando el John Mayer Trio. La influencia del blues es patente en su álbum Continuum, lanzado en septiembre de 2006. Ganó el premio Grammy en la categoría de mejor álbum vocal pop por Continuum y mejor interpretación vocal pop masculina por "Waiting on the World to Change" en la gala número 49 de los premios Grammy de 2007.

La carrera de Mayer se ha extendido hasta abarcar stand-up comedy, diseño gráfico y escribir; ha escrito columnas para algunas revistas, entre ellas Esquire. También se dedica a actividades filantrópicas a través de su propia fundación, "Back to You". Además, desde 2006, debido a una serie de relaciones personales ha aparecido con cierta asiduidad en las revistas de la prensa rosa. Wikipedia

“What I've learned in my life, it's a very interesting social study for me, to go back and forth between being the guy at home and being the guy on the road and being the guy in studio and being the guy in the interview. The environment around you has so much to do with your character, and when I'm home, my character really changes quite a bit. I become very domesticated, it becomes riding my bike, and the music thing — the music thing doesn't leave but it's kind of less put upon me by other people as a musician.”
