SPOTLIGHT of THE WEEK

"MAROON 5" 
  
maroon5.jpg
(Los Angeles, CA) - Three-time Grammy Award winning Diamond-certified band Maroon 5 proudly release their highly anticipated eighth studio album, "Love Is Like" (Interscope).

To accompany the new album, the band will embark on a national U.S. arena tour that will kick off this fall (please see full tour routing below). Tickets are on sale now. The 23-date Live Nation promoted run will visit major markets coast to coast, including a hometown show at Los Angeles' Kia Forum and a stop at New York City's iconic Madison Square Garden, before concluding on November 25 in Detroit, MI. Claire Rosinkranz will be direct support on all tour dates.

To mark the album's release, the band has also unveiled the music video for the standout title track, "Love Is Like," featuring Hip-Hop legend Lil Wayne. The new single delivers a dynamic and high-energy anthem complimented by Lil Wayne's distinctive flow. Accompanying the track is a playful music video directed by Aerin Moreno (Tate McRae, Tyla) that follows the band through a whirlwind day on the streets of New York City.

Maroon 5 first previewed their new album with the infectious lead single "Priceless," a collaboration with LISA of Blackpink, which brought together two global Pop stars whose voices are known & loved by generations of fans around the world. Billboard called the track "a major pop crossover moment" while Rolling Stone proclaimed it an "infectious pop song". The song climbed to No. 4 on the Hot AC chart, earning Maroon 5 their 28th Top 10 at Hot AC-second all-time only to Taylor Swift-and extending their streak of most Top 10s for a duo or group in chart history. The stylish music video for the track was directed by Aerin Moreno.

The band followed with the magnetic single "All Night," accompanied by a vibrant 80s-inspired music video which saw Behati Prinsloo Levine take her husband's place at center stage, backed by the full band, including Adam Levine on saxophone. Most recently, Maroon 5 released "California," a stripped-back and nostalgic track led by warm acoustics and subtle production.

"Love is Like" marks a return-to-form for the Diamond-Certified group and their first LP since 2021's JORDI. With their new music the group highlights their roots, while subtly expanding their sound on their newly released magnetic single "All Night". The track spotlights Adam Levine's rhythmic vocal hooks, layered over bass, percussion, synths, and saxophone. To herald in the album's release, Maroon 5 kicked off the month with a performance live from Rockefeller Plaza as part of the Citi Concert Series on TODAY. The band is also set to perform at iHeart's Las Vegas Music Festival on September 19th.
