Maroon 5, the dynamic band that has continuously captivated audiences worldwide, is hinting at some exciting developments for 2024. After their latest single “Middle Ground” released in 2023, fans have been eagerly awaiting more melodies since their 2021 album, 'Jordi'. The anticipation is now building for what could potentially be a full album release next year.
In a recent conversation with ABC Audio, James Valentine, the renowned guitarist of Maroon 5, shared some tantalizing tidbits. Although details are still under wraps, Valentine teased, “We got a couple of things that we’re working on. Nothing that I can talk about yet, but I’d say definitely stand by for some new music in 2024 from Maroon 5.” This hint has certainly set the fanbase abuzz with speculation and excitement.
The big question on everyone’s mind is whether the band will release a series of standalone singles or a full-fledged album as a follow-up to 'Jordi'. Valentine expressed uncertainty, saying, “We aren’t 100% sure yet. I don’t know if I could say, but I think … it’s almost album time.” This statement has only added fuel to the anticipatory fire among fans.
As for the nature and style of the upcoming music, Valentine maintains an air of mystery. He remarked, “We really don’t know. It depends on what happens once we get in the studio, when songs start getting tossed around.” He emphasized the band’s creative process, highlighting their openness to inspiration and the unexpected directions it can lead them. “We follow the muses where they take us and we never know where that’s really going to go,” he added.
While fans eagerly wait for new tunes, Maroon 5 isn't staying idle. They have a series of performances lined up for their Las Vegas residency at the Dolby Live Theater at Park MGM. These shows are scheduled from May 17 through June 1, and again from September 27 to October 12. These dates offer a perfect opportunity for fans to experience the band’s electric energy and possibly get a sneak peek at their new material.
Now that 2024 is here, the anticipation for Maroon 5's new music continues to grow. Whether it's an album or a series of singles, one thing is certain: Maroon 5's ability to evolve and surprise their audience remains unchanged.
