Maroon 5 Music
- Discography:
Maroon 5
Artist Overview
The roots of Los Angeles band Maroon 5 lay in the late-1990s Weezer-influenced alt-rock outfit Kara's Flowers. After that group disbanded, the members eventually started a new band (along with a second guitarist). Rechristening themselves Maroon 5, they began to incorporate strong funk and R&B influences into their sound. The resultant debut album, 2002's SONGS ABOUT JANE, made them stars long after Kara's Flowers had been forgotten.
