Biography

Los Angeles, United States (2002 – present)

Maroon 5 is a Grammy Award-winning American pop band. Formed in Los Angeles, United States, originally known as Kara’s Flowers, the group comprises five members: Adam Levine (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), James Valentine (lead guitar, backing vocals), Jesse Carmichael (keyboards, rhythm guitar, backing vocals), Mickey Madden (bass guitar), and Matt Flynn (drums, percussion). Songfacts reports that their 2011 single, Moves Like Jagger, topped the American charts and sold over a million copies in just over 20 weeks in the UK, despite failing to top the chart there.

Maroon 5 originally started out in Los Angeles as an alternative rock/power pop band called Kara’s Flowers in 1995. The lineup consisted of Adam Levine, Jesse Carmichael, Ryan Dusick, and Mickey Madden. They released two albums before parting ways with their record label. In 2002, they changed their name to Maroon 5 when guitarist James Valentine joined the band.

Maroon 5 has won several awards for its debut album Songs About Jane. Released in June 2002, the album enjoyed major chart success, going gold, platinum, and triple platinum in many countries around the world. In support of Songs About Jane, Maroon 5 toured extensively throughout 2003 – 2005, in which a live album was released, entitled Live - Friday the 13th. Original member Ryan Dusick left the band in September 2006, due to injuries sustained by the constant touring, and was replaced by Matt Flynn.
