My Fantasy Band: Jason Mraz, singer-songwriter

Vocals and Bass - Paul McCartney
You have to have a member of the Beatles in a fantasy line-up so I'm going with Paul. He's legendary, quirky and groovy. It's not so much the sound that comes out of his mouth that is so remarkable, but the words. As a songwriter, I admire his ability to tell stories. I'm not one of those fans who wishes he'd quit music and let his legacy speak for itself, I still think he's great now.

Guitar - Rodrigo y Gabriela
They're a duo from Mexico City who play on nylon guitars. They come from a rock background but are more acoustic rock now. They are mental and melodic and play with undeniable fury and fervour.

Drums - Brian Viglione
Viglione from The Dresden Dolls wears underwear on stage and sings and dances while playing the drums: that would add a bit of style. Alternatively, I think Carter Beauford from Dave Matthews Band is an extremely lyrical drummer and listens to the song.

Keyboards - Stevie Wonder
Probably Stevie Wonder or Herbie Hancock. They are tremendously epic players who have reinvented funky piano. Jools Holland is always really fun, too.

Jason Mraz's album 'We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.' is out now on Atlantic
