Singer/songwriter/producer/musician Bruno Mars returns with Unorthodox Jukebox, the highly anticipated follow-up to his platinum certified breakthrough debut and Album of the Year Grammy nominated Doo-Wops & Hooligans.

The album was executive produced by The Smeezingtons, the hit-making production team comprised of Mars, Philip Lawrence, and Ari Levine. An additional array of top producers also joined in the creation of the album including such award-winning studio superstars as Jeff Bhasker (fun., Kanye West, Jay-Z), Mark Ronson (Amy Winehouse, Lil Wayne, Black Lips) and Diplo (M.I.A, Usher).

Fueled by a remarkable string of hit singles, including the multi-platinum #1 smashes, “Just The Way You Are” and “Grenade,” the album instantly established Mars as a major force in modern pop music!
