Watch: John Mayer heads west in ‘Queen of California’ video…or does he?

John Mayer goes through his own westward expansion on the video for “Queen of California.” The  low-key video matches the laidback feel of the song, as Mayer strolls casually through various landscapes -New York City”s hustle and bustle, a movie set, the snow-crested Rockies-as he wends his way to a final beautiful scene (that still looks decidedly east coast, given the trees) and reunites with his band.

“Queen of California” is the second video from Mayer’s excellent “Born And Raised” album. Read our review here.
