Maroon 5, Maren Morris to share Jones Beach stage this summer
Maroon 5, whose roots trace partly to frontman Adam Levine and guitarist Jesse Carmichael's semester at Five Towns College in Dix Hills, will play Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater on July 3 as part of a nine-date mini-tour between sessions of the rock band's Las Vegas residency.
Tickets for the Wantagh concert, with opening act Maren Morris, go on sale to the general public Friday at 10 a.m. at Maroon5.com.
Three-time Grammy Award winners Maroon 5 released their first No. 1 single, “Makes Me Wonder,” in 2007. The band eventually scored Diamond certifications, meaning 10 million units sold each, with the No. 1 singles “Moves Like Jagger” (2011), featuring Christina Aguilera, and “Girls Like You” (2018), featuring Cardi B. An additional No. 1 single, “One More Night” (2012) also went multiplatinum.
The band, whose most recent album, “Jordi,” came out in 2021, completed a 16-date Las Vegas residency at the Park MGM hotel-casino's Dolby Live theater in 2023. A second 16-date residency plays there May 17 to June 1 and Sept. 27 to Oct. 12 this year.
Country music/pop star Morris has earned 17 Grammy nominations, winning the award on her first nod with her Best Country Solo Performance single, “My Church” (2015). While she has played Manhattan venues regularly over the last few years, including Radio City Music Hall in 2019 and 2022, her sole recorded Long Island performance was Sept. 12, 2018, also at Jones Beach.
