ABOUT MAROON 5 Capturing their first of three Grammy Awards as “Best New Artist” of 2005 and going on to sell more than 17 million albums worldwide, Maroon 5’s releases have gone gold and platinum in over 35 countries. The band won over fans and critics alike with the hybrid rock/R&B sound they introduced on their debut album, Songs About Jane and their double platinum album, It Won't be Soon Before Long, which included hits like "Makes Me Wonder" and "If I Never See your Face Again." In 2010, the band released their third studio album, Hands All Over, which was certified platinum. The collection featured two hit singles including the Hot AC smash “Misery” and the anthemic “Moves Like Jagger,” which climbed to the #1 spot on the Top 40, Hot AC and Billboard Hot 100 charts. The track has also become one of the best‐selling singles of all time. Following the release of the album, both “Misery” and “Moves LikeJagger” received GRAMMY nominations.

Maroon 5’s latest album Overexposed has quickly reinforced the group’s status as a powerhouse in popular music with all of the collection’s singles quickly rising to the top of the charts. The band set a record for the most #1’s (six in total) by a group in the Top 40 chart’s 20‐year history. Maroon 5 are currently in the studio recording a new album.

In addition to his work with Maroon 5, Adam Levine has returned for the 6th season as a coach on the EMMY Award winning NBC hit series The Voice. Adam made his small screen acting debut on the second season of the hit FX drama American Horror Story, and will soon be seen in a lead role in the major motion picture film, Can A Song Save Your Life from director John Carney, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2013.

ABOUT JIMMY BUFFETT Buffett has recorded over fifty albums, most of which have gone gold, platinum or multi‐platinum. His sold‐ out concert tours are an annual rite of summer for his legions of fans, affectionately known as Parrotheads, many of whom are professionals by day and who dress in spectacular and outrageous tropical outfits and headwear when Jimmy comes to town.

Born in the GulfCoast town of Pascagoula, Mississippi, Buffett was raised in Mobile, Alabama. He is a fourth‐ generation sailor and fisherman, a pilot, a surfer, and a frequent traveler to remote and exotic places of the world, having become addicted to National Geographic magazine as a child.

The lyrics to many of his songs are influenced by his travels all over the globe.

As a best‐selling author, he is one of only nine authors in the history of the New York Times Bestseller List to have reached #1 on both their fiction and non‐fiction lists. Jimmy has received two Grammy nominations, numerous Country Music Association awards and was the recipient of one of the nation's highest songwriting honors when he was inducted into the Nashville Hall Of Fame.
