Maroon 5 Announce New Album and Tour

05/11/2010
.
Maroon 5's third studio album, Hands All Over, will hit stores on September 21st. Produced by Robert John "Mutt" Lange (AC/DC, Def Leppard, The Cars), Hands All Over is a hybrid of rock, pop, funk and R&B.

In addition, the album's first single will impact radio on June 28th. Following the release of the single, Maroon 5 has announced plans for a summer concert tour that will encompass nearly 30 dates by the end of the summer.

The tour is set to kick off on July 30th and will feature a rotating group of special guests including Owl City, Guster, Kris Allen, VV Brown and Ry Cuming (please see routing below). Tickets for select dates of the tour will go on sale Friday, May 14th.

Maroon 5 began writing the songs that appear on Hands All Over after winding down from a world tour in support of their 2007 studio release It Won't Be Soon Before Long. Several months later, the band received a phone call from Lange, who had heard that the band were beginning to write a new album, and expressed an interest in producing it.

"We didn't even talk to anyone else," Adam Levine, Maroon 5's frontman says. "Mutt is undeniably one of the most successful producers who's ever lived."

Jesse Carmichael, the band's keyboardist, added, "Mutt really helped us play to the best of our ability. And it drove us to be bigger and better than ever."

Long-time fans will get a thrill out of "Misery," with its funky guitars and high-stepping melody, as well as the propulsive "Stutter," melody rich "Give A Little More" and "Don't Know Much About That," which professes a classic soulful vibe.
