Hey think I got the connection between Makana and Mraz. I found an article on MTV.com where Mraz was talking about the people he brought on his “Tour of the Curbside Prophets” several years ago and one of them was Makana. He said he discovered Makana through yoga and so that’s how Makana got invited to the tour. Hope the answer is Makana opened for Mraz on tour… Am I correct?
