Q&A: Adam Levine of Maroon 5
As teenagers in the mid- to late-’90s, Adam Levine, Jesse Carmichael, Mickey Madden and Ryan Dusick trudged their way through the music business in the rock band Kara’s Flowers.
That band caused a stir in college radio with their Reprise Records debut, “The Fourth World,” before deciding to re-invent itself.
