Jack Johnson is one lean, green, music-playing machine, and he’s about to prove it!
On October 27th, “En Concert” will officially be released — a film chronlocing one leg of Johnson’s 2008 “Sleep Through the Static” tour.
Here are the Razz we were pretty much obsessed with the Static tour, thanks to their use of biodiesel buses, [...]

Only Jack Johnson could create a song about the recycling that’s not only easy on the ears, but worth repeat listening. His “The 3 R’s” song off of the Curious George soundtrack is a favorite on the green scene — so it’s no surprise that someone has already remixed it for the tween scene.

Having lived in Florida for the first 18 years of my life, I have a special appreciation for the glory that is an awesome beach! Therefore, I am extra pleased as punch to hear that a slew of eco-minded celebs are auctioning off their shoes for the Surfrider Foundation – an organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment [...]

We’re big fans of Donavon Frankenreiter here on the Razz — mainly because he’s got a kick-back, relax, crack open a Corona-type vibe that’s reminiscent of Jack Johnson.

The Surfrider Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the world’s oceans, is partnering with lovely Jack to raise some much-needed funds for Mother [...]

The Daily Green recently released a list of ten not-to-be-missed eco-friendly music tours this summer.
Radiohead is demanding that anyone on tour with them use water flasks. Doing everything they can think of to be environmentally friendly, they use bio-fuel in their buses, refuse to use airfreight, and their opening act, Liars, says “Plastic anything is [...]

Sometimes musicians will ask for the damndest things while on tour. Last July, Barbara Streisand’s odd request for 120 bath-sized towels backstage at all times came to light. Then there’s Cher’s request for a private “wig room”. And let’s not forget that all of Willie Nelson’s concert engagements must be “smoke free”. Uh huh.
Thankfully, Jack [...]

I missed a brilliant interview Grist had with Jason Mraz last month — but in retro, it’s kind of cool to approach it after reading the musician’s recent dive into the vegan and raw foods scene. This is truly someone who is in transition from knowing nothing about sustainability at all, to embracing, learning, and [...]
