About Bruno Mars

Peter Gene Hernandez was born in Honolulu on October 8, 1985, the second-youngest of six children in a family that played music for a living. His father, Pete Hernandez, was a Puerto Rican percussionist from Brooklyn; his mother, Bernadette, was a Filipina singer who had emigrated as a teenager. Both performed in a Waikiki Beach lounge act called the Love Notes, and from the age of four Mars was on stage with them doing an Elvis impression that local papers ran photos of for years. He picked up the nickname Bruno from his father, after wrestler Bruno Sammartino, and dropped Hernandez once he started writing professionally to avoid being typecast as a Latin act in early-2000s Los Angeles. After moving to L.A. straight out of high school, he spent the late 2000s grinding through a Motown Records dead end before reinventing himself as a songwriter and producer inside the Smeezingtons collective with Philip Lawrence and Ari Levine. Their fingerprints landed on Flo Rida's Right Round, K'naan's Wavin' Flag, Travie McCoy's Billionaire, and B.o.B's Nothin' on You — the last two with Mars singing the hook and effectively launching his own solo career. The debut Doo-Wops & Hooligans (2010) delivered Just the Way You Are and Grenade, both global No. 1s, and established the retro-pop lane he'd refine across the rest of the decade. Unorthodox Jukebox (2012) leaned heavier on funk and R&B with Locked Out of Heaven, When I Was Your Man, and Treasure; the album's tour was the first time his live show fully clicked into Vegas-revue mode with the Hooligans. Uptown Funk, his 2014 collaboration with Mark Ronson, sat at No. 1 in the U.S. for 14 weeks and made him an unavoidable presence at every wedding reception of the decade. 24K Magic (2016) followed, won Album, Record, and Song of the Year at the Grammys in a single night, and the supporting world tour grossed north of $370 million across more than 200 dates. His first Super Bowl halftime performance was in 2014; he returned in 2016 alongside Coldplay and Beyoncé. The Silk Sonic project with Anderson .Paak — An Evening with Silk Sonic, 2021 — was a deliberate left turn into '70s soul that produced Leave the Door Open and a brief Park MGM residency. The Vegas residency at Dolby Live has run on and off since, expanding to include dates at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace and forming the anchor of his calendar between tour legs.
