Maroon 5, from California, USA, has five members, namely lead singer/guitar Adam Levine, guitar James Valentine, keyboard Jesse Carmichael and bass Mickey medon. Drummer Ryan Dusick, several members have known each other since childhood and formed a band called "Kara's Flowers" when they were in high school. Their musical talent won them the opportunity to sign contracts with mainstream record companies as soon as they graduated from high school. Only 17-year-old Aidan Lewen, Jesse Kamimai, Mickey medon and Ryan Dasik got the opportunity to record their first album together with Rob Cavallo, a famous producer who made many famous bands, such as Green Day and Goo Goo Dolls. Everything looks so perfect for a few members who are only 17 years old. However, the first album "The Fourth World" released by "Kara's Flowers" was a complete commercial failure. "We were only 17 years old, and several people had to sit down and think about our future." Adam Levine, the lead singer/guitar, said, "Finally, we decided to apply for the university and disband the band." Lead singer Adam Levine went to NYU with keyboard Jesse Carmichael, while Mickey medon and drummer Ryan Dusick stayed in UCLA. After several years of college life, several members met again in California and found that everyone's enthusiasm for music was still alive, so Maroon 5, a new band, was born again. "We don't want to use the name Kara's Flowers anymore, because we have changed a lot and matured a lot in the past few years. At that time, we also had a new member, guitarist James Valentine. And the name you came up with when you were 15 years old may not be liked when you are 23 years old. "Lead singer/guitar Adam Levine said this about the change of the band name. With a new name and new music concept, Maroon5 has once again been favored by different record companies. In 21, Maroon 5 got the cooperation opportunity with Matt Valles, a famous record producer who produced The Replacements, Faith No More. In June 22, Maroon 5' s debut album "Songs About Jane" came out. After 17 months and more than 5 live performances, the song "Hard To Breath" in the album finally entered the fourth place in the national radio charts. After that, other songs in the album, such as "She'll be loved" and "This Love", topped the charts of MTV and VH1. Up to now, the album has sold more than 3 million copies, and the band was invited to perform at the just-concluded 47th Grammy Awards and won the "Best New Artist" award.
