Musician John Mayer has been quiet of late; now we know why.

Mayer is recovering from throat surgery he underwent earlier this week.

Mayer blogged will be taking off to "travel the country, look and listen" until he is able to return to work.

The singer had a throat inflammation that resting his voice and other remedies could not cure.

The diagnosis came in September and the surgery led to the cancellation of Mayer's performances with Tony Bennett in Los Angeles and Las Vegas, and the delayed release of his new album, which is now expected to launch in 2012.

“I should be frustrated but I can’t seem to stop thinking about beautiful things… I never thought I’d be wishing I could do what I love again; I stay in at night, picking guitar parts off of records and dreaming of playing on the big stage. The only difference between now and when I was 18 is that now I have this beautiful, meaningful record waiting for me when I can sing it," he blogged.
