Bruno Mars Reveals His Favorite Collaborators

Bruno Mars has worked with an impressive roster of artists over his award-winning career. From his funk-pop band Silk Sonic with Anderson .Paak to writing credits on Brandy’s albums, Mars enjoys the creative energy of collaborating. As he continues working with talented musicians, Mars has singled out a few as his all-time favorites.

Anderson .Paak

At the top of Mars’ list is his recent Silk Sonic partner Anderson .Paak. The two musicians connected through their mutual love of throwback soul and funk. According to Mars, “As soon as we started playing the first chord, it instantly worked.” Their chemistry led to Silk Sonic’s debut album “An Evening with Silk Sonic,” which went platinum and dominated at the 2022 Grammys with four wins. Mars has praised .Paak’s musicianship and impressive vocals, citing his versatility as one of the main reasons he loves collaborating with the artist.

Guy Sebastian

Australian singer Guy Sebastian first met Mars when he was opening for Mars’ Moonshine Jungle World Tour in 2013. Mars later co-wrote and produced several tracks on Sebastian’s 2015 album “Madness,” including the hit single “Get Along.” Mars has been a vocal supporter of Sebastian over the years, emphasizing his incredible voice and talent. While the two haven’t collaborated recently, Sebastian remains a favorite partner of Mars because of their easy musical rapport.

Philip Lawrence

Behind the scenes, Bruno Mars frequently collaborates with producer Philip Lawrence, better known as GT. Lawrence has co-written many of Mars’ hits over the years, including the smash singles “Locked Out of Heaven,” “Treasure,” and “That’s What I Like.” Their partnership has shaped Mars’ signature sound and elevated his music to new heights. Mars values the trust they have built from years of writing together and sees Lawrence as integral to his creative process.

While Mars has appreciated all his collaborations, these three artists stand out from the pack as his favorites to work with. From Silk Sonic’s throwback soul to the pop hits with GT, Mars sees these fruitful partnerships continuing to shape his musical legacy. As he ventures into new territory, fans can expect these creative comrades to remain by Mars’ side.
