Maroon 5 News

Maroon 5 & Rhianna - June 2008 Another day, another big-name artist gearing up to promote an album re-release with a big, shiny music video. Only this time it's different: It's two big-name artists. At the same time.

On Wednesday, Maroon 5 and Rihanna joined forces on a Los Angeles soundstage to film a video for a remake of "If I Never See Your Face Again" — originally the lead track on M5's 2007 effort, It Won't Be Soon Before Long — which will appear on reissues of both artists' albums.

"We're both re-releasing our albums — mine's out June 17," Rihanna told MTV News. "This is the only collaboration on my re-release, because I always wanted to work with Maroon 5. They're one of my favorite bands. When they called me to do this record with them, I was so honored."

"The song was basically done, but we wanted to try something different, so we had her come in and do bits and pieces," Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine added. "It came together so quick. The only other collaboration I had done before was with Kanye, and it was the same way. It sounds cheesy, but if the magic is there, if the chemistry is there, you don't even have to think about it."

Maroon 5 on iTunes in Soho - March 2008 Three-time Grammy winning act Maroon 5 brought a few hundred of their closest friends to the Apple Store in New York City’s Soho area for a rare and intimate performance. The band wowed the packed-house crowd with stunning renditions of every track from platinum-plus-selling new album It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, and beginning today, six of that evening’s most electrifying moments are available on an exclusive iTunes Live from Soho EP.

 Maroon 5: Live from Soho captures the quintet (vocalist/guitarist Adam Levine, guitarist James Valentine, keyboardist Jesse Carmichael, bassist Mickey Madden and drummer Matt Flynn) tearing through new hit single "If I Never See Your Face Again" and recent Grammy-winning lead track "Makes Me Wonder," smash hits "Wake Up Call," and "Won’t Go Home Without You," along with fan favorites "Little Of Your Time" and "Nothing Lasts Forever."

 The band will be performing these hits and more on their upcoming co-headlining summer tour with Counting Crows and opener Sara Bareilles. The much-anticipated road show launches July 25th at the Verizon Wireless Virginia Beach Amphitheater in Virginia Beach, VA.

Fans who purchase Maroon 5: Live from Soho between March 25 and midnight on March 31 will qualify for special pre-sale concert tickets.
