It currently consists of lead vocalist Adam Levine, keyboardist and rhythm guitarist Jesse Carmichael, bassist Mickey Madden, lead guitarist James Valentine, drummer Matt Flynn and keyboardist PJ Morton. Original members Adam Levine, Jesse Carmichael, Mickey Madden and drummer Ryan Dusick first came together as Kara 's Flowers in 1994, while they were still in high school. The band self - released an album called We Like Digging ?, then signed to Reprise Records and released the album The Fourth World in 1997. After the album garnered a tepid response, the band parted ways with the record label and the members attended college. In 2001, the band changed its image by adding guitarist James Valentine and pursuing a different direction under the name Maroon 5. At this point, Carmichael switched to playing keyboards, which has since become his main instrument in the band. After these changes, the band signed with a subsidiary of J Records, Octone Records, and released their debut album as Maroon 5, Songs About Jane, in June 2002. The album 's lead single, `` Harder to Breathe '', received heavy airplay, which helped the album to debut at number six on the Billboard 200 chart. In 2004, the album went platinum and has been dubbed `` the sleeper hit of the millennium ''. The band won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 2005. For the next few years, Maroon 5 toured extensively worldwide in support of Songs About Jane and produced two live recordings : 2004 's 1.22. 03. Acoustic and 2005 's Live -- Friday the 13th. In 2006, Dusick officially left Maroon 5 after suffering from serious wrist and shoulder injuries and was replaced by Matt Flynn. The band then recorded their second album, It Wo n't Be Soon Before Long and released it in May 2007. The album reached number one on the US Billboard 200 chart and the lead single, `` Makes Me Wonder '', became the band 's first number - one single on the Billboard Hot 100. In September 2010, Maroon 5 released their third studio album Hands All Over, which was re-released in 2011 to include the single `` Moves like Jagger '' featuring Christina Aguilera. While the original version of the album received mixed reviews, `` Moves like Jagger '' reached the number one position on the Billboard Hot 100. The band released their fourth album, Overexposed, on June 26, 2012. All four singles of the album were highly successful on the Billboard Hot 100, including second single `` One More Night '', which reached number one for 9 weeks straight. In 2012, keyboardist PJ Morton became an official member of the band, after gaining little success with his previous albums as an R&B vocalist. The addition of PJ Morton meant that for the first time, Maroon 5 had six official members. The same year, the group 's friend and long - time collaborator, as well as the bass player of Phantom Planet - Sam Farrar - joined Maroon 5 as a touring member, playing many different instruments ( including guitars, percussion and additional keyboards ), singing backing vocals and also providing samples and other special effects. In 2014, the band signed with Interscope Records and released their fifth studio album, V. Maroon 5 has sold more than 20 million records and 48 million singles worldwide.

Levine was 15 years old and Dusick was 16. Three of the five members of the band started playing together at age 12. The four original members of the band met while attending Brentwood EMH School in Los Angeles. While attending Brentwood EMH School, Adam Levine and Jesse Carmichael joined up with Mickey Madden and Ryan Dusick to form Kara 's Flowers, a rock band. The name was taken from a girl that went to their high school that the band had a `` collective crush '' on. In 1997, when the band was playing at a beach party in Malibu, independent producer Tommy Allen heard them play and offered to manage them and record a complete record with his partner, songwriter John DeNicola, who is known for his work on Dirty Dancing -- including `` ( I 've Had ) The Time of My Life ''. Producer Rob Cavallo 's management team heard the record Allen and DeNicola produced, which eventually led Cavallo to offer them a deal with Reprise Records, re-recording the album. However, after the release of The Fourth World, during Levine and Madden 's senior year of high school in 1997, it had morphed into a band with a style reminiscent of 1960s Britpop. Despite high expectations from the band and record company, the album failed to catch on and their lead single, `` Soap Disco '', was a failure. According to Levine, the failure of the album was `` a huge disappointment '' that nearly led them to break up in 1998. The album sold around 5,000 copies and the band was dropped after six months. Dusick and Madden attended college locally at UCLA, while Levine and Carmichael relocated to the East coast to attend Five Towns College, in Dix Hills, Long Island, New York. While Levine and Carmichael were in New York, they began to take notice of the urban music surrounding them and later let the style influence the songs they wrote. The band returned to the music industry again in 2001. Producer Tim Sommer signed them to a demo deal with MCA Records and produced three tracks with them in Los Angeles in the middle of 2001 with Mark Dearnley engineering. Against Sommer 's advice, MCA declined to pick up the band, and these tracks were never released. The band put together a demo that was rejected by several labels, before falling into the hands of Octone Records executives James Diener, Ben Berkman and David Boxenbaum. While looking for talent for the Octone label, Berkman was given a bunch of demos by the brother of a former colleague at Columbia Records and the song that caught his attention was `` ' Sunday Morning ' '' which he referred it as a `` genius song ''. Berkman was surprised the song was credited to Kara 's Flowers, because the band sounded completely different from the one he had heard while at Warner Brothers. Berkman encouraged Diener and Boxenbaum to fly out to Los Angeles to watch a showcase gig at The Viper Room for the four - piece Kara 's Flowers. After watching Levine onstage, they were convinced. Berkman told HitQuarters he believed what the band needed was a `` fifth member to play the guitar and free up the singer, so he could be the star I perceived him to be. '' Octone immediately insisted that the band change its name to break with its pop past. Also, the label began looking for a full - time guitarist to enable Levine to focus on performing as the frontman. James Valentine ( from the L.A. band Square ) was recruited for the job. On his joining the band, Valentine commented : `` I became friends with them and we sort of started jamming together, it was very much like I was cheating on my band, we were having sort of an affair and I eventually quit my other band to join up with them. '' 2002 -- 2006 : songs About Jane and Dusick 's departure Main article : Songs About Jane `` Between the time that we started making the album ( Songs About Jane ) in 2001 and the time the album reached the crest of its success in 2004, we went from being starving musicians wondering what the future held to riding a wave of success beyond our wildest expectations. '' -- Ryan Dusick, Maroon 5 's original drummer, who officially left the band in 2006 due to injuries to his shoulders and wrists sustained from constant touring Maroon 5 in concert in 2004 James Valentine attended Berklee College of Music with John Mayer in 1996, where they developed a rapport. In 2002, the two reconnected at a Mayer radio appearance. After Mayer heard their album, he was so impressed ( particularly by `` This Love '', which became the most successful release off the album and propelled the band to superstardom ) that he invited them to open for him during his early 2003 tour. The first single, `` Harder to Breathe '', slowly started to pick up airplay which helped spur sales of the album. By March 2004, Songs About Jane had reached the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 and `` Harder to Breathe '' had made the Top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles charts. The album peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 in September 2004, 26 months after its release ; this was the longest period between an album 's release and its initial Top 10 appearance since SoundScan results were included in the Billboard 200 in 1991. The album went on to sell over 10 million copies worldwide. This had all happened after the band `` abandoned its post-grunge roots for a radio - friendly pop - soul sound, even while dabbling in hard rock. '' Mayer invited the band to open for him again in 2004. Over the next three years, the band toured virtually non-stop, including visits to seventeen countries. During this time, the band toured with Michelle Branch, Graham Colton, and the Rolling Stones. Other acts the band toured alongside with included Gavin DeGraw, Matchbox Twenty, Sugar Ray, Counting Crows, Phantom Planet, the Hives, Dashboard Confessional, Simon Dawes, the Thrills, Thirsty Merc, Marc Broussard, the Donnas, the RedWest, Michael Tolcher, and Guster. Sam Farrar says the Aaliyah song `` Are You That Somebody ? '' affected the band and influenced the song `` Not Coming Home. '' Songs About Jane eventually reached No. 1 on the Australian albums ( ARIA ), while `` Harder to Breathe '' made the Top 20 singles charts in the US and UK, and Top 40 in Australia and New Zealand. The album also eventually climbed to No. 1 in the UK. The second single, `` This Love '', reached No. 5 in the US, No. 3 in the UK, and No. 8 in Australia. The third single, `` She Will Be Loved, '' reached the Top 5 in both the US and the UK, and went to No. 1 in Australia. The fourth single, `` Sunday Morning, '' reached the Top 40 in the US, UK, and Australia. Maroon 5 also played Live 8, in Philadelphia in 2005. Their set included a cover of Neil Young 's `` Rockin ' In The Free World '' and frontman Levine performed with one of his heroes, and the closing act, Stevie Wonder. On May 13, 2005, in Santa Barbara, California, the band wrapped up the Honda Civic Tour, which it headlined. On June 9, 2005, the band performed at the American Film Institute 's tribute to filmmaker George Lucas. Lucas himself had selected Maroon 5 for the event, as it was his children 's favorite band at the time. Over the years of touring with the band their drummer, percussionist and backing vocalist Ryan Dusick had been suffering from the touring life. The strains of non-stop touring aggravated an old sports injury. After several absences from the tour with Ryland Steen and Josh Day taking his place, Dusick officially left Maroon 5 in September 2006. Matt Flynn, the former drummer of Gavin DeGraw and the B - 52 's, joined the band as Dusick 's replacement. 2006 -- 2008 : it Wo n't Be Soon Before Long Main article : It Wo n't Be Soon Before Long Maroon 5 in Madison Square Garden in 2007 After recording for 8 months in 2006, Maroon 5 's second album, It Wo n't Be Soon Before Long, was released worldwide in May 2007 by A&M Octone Records. According to Levine, the follow - up to Songs About Jane is `` sexier and stronger '', gaining inspiration from iconic 80s artists such as Prince, Shabba Ranks, Michael Jackson and Talking Heads. Ann Powers writing for Los Angeles Times said It Wo n't Be Soon Long is `` An icy - hot blend of electro - funk and blue - eyed soul that works its cruel streak with the confidence of Daniel Craig 's James Bond ''. Before its release, `` Makes Me Wonder '' was the No. 1 selling single and video on iTunes. It was also the No. 1 selling album, with more than 50,000 digital pre-sales. After its release, the album broke iTunes sales records its week of release, selling over 101,000 albums. The first single, `` Makes Me Wonder, '' was released to radio March 27, 2007. The song debuted at number 84 on the Billboard Hot 100, the lowest debuting single of the group 's five chart entries. In the first week of May, the single skyrocketed from a lowly position of No. 64 to No. 1, the biggest jump in Billboard history at the time. `` Makes Me Wonder '' has also achieved No. 1 on Billboard 's Hot Digital Songs, Pop 100, and Hot Dance Club Play charts. To support the album, the band performed on a `` six - date club tour '' in which it visited small venues in Boston, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Miami and New York City in early June 2007. The band followed with a concert that streamed live via MSN Music in mid-June. On July 10, it opened for The Police in Miami, and followed with an acoustic performance at the Miami club, Studio A, the next day. Their It Wo n't Be Soon Before Long world tour took place in 2007, where the band toured 28 cities in North America. The tour began September 29 in Detroit touring in 28 cities in North America and concluded November 10 in Las Vegas. the Hives, as the tour 's special guest, performed on all of the dates while Sara Bareilles, Kevin Michael and Phantom Planet each performed in a portion of the tour.

The re-release of the album featured a new duet version of `` If I Never See Your Face Again '' with Rihanna ; the new version of the song also appeared on the re-release of Rihanna 's album Good Girl Gone Bad. The band also released as the fifth single `` Goodnight Goodnight '', which appeared in The CW Fall 2008 promo commercial. 2008 -- 2011 : Hands All Over Main article : Hands All Over ( album ) Levine stated that he believed the band was reaching its peak and may make one more album before disbanding. He explained, `` Eventually I want to focus on being a completely different person because I do n't know if I want to do this into my 40s and 50s and beyond, like the Rolling Stones ''. The band 's third studio album was recorded in 2009 in Switzerland, where the band was joined by record producer Robert John `` Mutt '' Lange. The album, titled Hands All Over, was released on September 21, 2010. On the Billboard 200, the album debuted at number two behind Zac Brown Band 's album You Get What You Give. Despite the high placement on the Billboard 200 only 142,000 copies were sold, which was relatively weak compared to their previous album It Wo n't Be Soon Before Long, which debuted at number one with 429,000 copies.

It 's been fun to experiment on the last couple of records with the more electronic sounds, but maybe we 've gone as far as we can with that for now. '' The band released a single featuring Kendrick Lamar, entitled `` Do n't Wanna Know '', to Top 40 radio on October 18, 2016. On January 13, 2017, it was revealed by singer Adam Levine that the band is currently working on their sixth studio album.

Another single, `` Cold '', featuring American rapper Future, was released to Top 40 radio on February 14, 2017. On August 13, 2017, Levine announced at the 2017 Teen Choice Awards, that the album will be released in November 2017. The band 's next single, `` What Lovers Do '' featuring SZA, was released on August 30, 2017. Musical style and influences `` I think the classic Maroon 5 song is minor, and it has some funk, Nile Rodgers - style guitar and the lyrics are probably about getting your heart broken. So minor, funk and heartbreak -- that 's the Maroon 5 formula. '' -- James Valentine Adam Levine has stated : `` ( E ) verything that 's written and performed and put together pretty much comes from us. I just think people would be surprised to know that we 're a self - contained unit. We 're a band that does their own thing. There 's no puppet master. '' However, in an article about the songwriter and producer Benny Blanco, it is revealed that at least some of the band 's songs, such as `` Moves like Jagger, '' are the product of efforts by, or collaborations with, professional songwriters and producers. In the same article, Levine says, `` It 's almost as if ( Benny Blanco ) has the Midas touch in putting the right people together at the right time to create a musical moment. He 's about the collaboration. And he 's so good at nailing down who does everything best. '' The band has cited Elita 5, Michael Jackson, The Police, the Bee Gees, Justin Timberlake, Stevie Wonder, Tonic, Prince, Tupac Shakur and Marvin Gaye as influences. Adam Levine has also cited Billy Joel as an influence. Furthermore, guitarist James Valentine said he was influenced by guitarists like Pat Metheny, Bill Frisell and John Scofield, as well as the rock band Queens of the Stone Age. The band 's songs tend to be very guitar - heavy, often accompanied by piano or synthesizer. The theme in most of their songs is love, frequently lost love ; songs like `` This Love '', `` Makes Me Wonder '' and `` Misery '' have a very cynical tone, often expressing dissatisfaction with a relationship, while their more heartfelt and emotional songs such as `` She Will Be Loved '' and `` Never Gonna Leave This Bed '' express a longing for a romantic relationship. `` Makes Me Wonder '' has a secondary theme, in which Levine expresses his disillusionment and frustration with the state of American politics and the Iraq War. The band 's style changes from album to album. Songs About Jane consists of songs about Levine 's ex-girlfriend Jane Herman. On It Wo n't Be Soon Before Long, however, the songs are less personal and are more electric with more use of synthesizers, creating a retro feel. Hands All Over continues the band 's lost love theme, along with songs about infatuation and was re-released in 2011, with the hit single `` Moves like Jagger '', an electropop song which represents a drastic change in the band 's sound, with more of a dance feel to it. `` It was one of those songs that was definitely a risk, '' Levine said. `` It 's a bold statement. We 've never really released a song like that. But it 's exciting to do something different, do something new. I 'm just glad that everyone likes it. '' James Valentine called Overexposed `` our most ' pop ' record ever and we were n't shy about really going for it. '' They also have experimented with new wave and disco sounds on several albums.
