Maroon 5’s success dates back to 2002, with the release of its debut album, Songs About Jane, which was certified quadruple platinum.  The album contained four chart-topping singles: “This Love,” “She Will Be Loved,” “Harder to Breathe,” and “Sunday Morning.”  Maroon 5 recently released its latest album, It Wont Be Soon Before Long.

Maroon 5, known for its hybrid pop/rock sound, has won two Grammy Awards.  The quintet consists of: Adam Levine, vocalist; Matt Flynn, drummer; James Valentine, guitarist; Mickey Madden, bassist and Jesse Carmichael, keyboardist.

Counting Crows came on to the scene in 1993 with its debut album, August and Everything After.  The album included the hit song “Mr. Jones” and sold seven million copies.  The group has since released four additional albums and sold more than 20 million albums worldwide.  Earlier this month, Counting Crows released Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings, which contains the current hit “You Can't Count On Me.”  Counting Crows were nominated for an Academy Award for the number one hit “Accidentally In Love,” a track on the “Shrek” soundtrack.

Members of the Counting Crows include: Adam Duritz, vocalist; Jim Bogios, drummer; David Bryson, David Immergluck and Dan Vickrey, guitarists; Charles Gillingham, keyboardist and Millard Powers, touring bassist.

Also appearing will be Sara Bareilles, best known for her hit, “Love Song,” which catapulted her into the top five on the Billboard pop charts.  A singer/songwriter with a soul/pop sound, Bareilles signed with Epic Records in 2005 and released her first major label album, Little Voice, in 2007.
