Multiplatinum band TRAIN has made its mark on music history with their
GRAMMY-Award-winning song "Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)" and chart-topping
singles "Meet Virginia" and "Calling All Angels." Train earned their
third GRAMMY earlier this year for worldwide smash "Hey Soul Sister"
from its current release Save Me, San Francisco. "Hey Soul Sister" was
the biggest selling single of 2010 and hit #1 at radio in the US and in
15 countries abroad. Train hit #1 again with "If It's Love" and the
current single "Marry Me" from Save Me, San Francisco has reached
platinum status as well. Save Me, San Francisco has sold over one
million albums worldwide and over eight million tracks. VH1 will
premiere the video for the next single "Save Me, San Francisco" on the
VH1 Top 20 Countdown on May 7.  In addition to taking the sales and
radio worlds by storm, Train has been all over television. They have
performed on the American Music Awards, the Grammy Nomination Concert,
Crossroads, The Today Show, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Monday Night
Football, A&E Private Sessions, America's Got Talent, The View, Dancing
With The Stars, Live With Regis and Kelly, Ellen DeGeneres Show, Lopez
Tonight and more. 

 

Capturing their first of three GRAMMY Awards as "Best New Artist" of
2005 and going on to sell more than 15 million albums worldwide, Maroon
5 won over fans and critics alike with their hybrid rock/R&B sound. The
band recently released their third studio album Hands All Over, which
was produced by studio legend Robert John "Mutt" Lange. Met by critical
praise, with Rolling Stone stating it's their "brightest sounding and
poppiest album yet," the album notched a #2 debut on the Billboard Top
200 Albums' chart. Earlier this year, Maroon 5 received a GRAMMY Award
nomination for "Misery," the debut single off Hands All Over, in the
category of "Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals." The
nod marks the group's seventh GRAMMY nomination overall and 4th in that
category. Most recently, Maroon 5 has made waves with the release of
their third single "Never Gonna Leave This Bed," which is currently
blazing up the Hot AC and Top 40 charts. Maroon 5's releases have gone
gold and platinum in over 35 countries around the world, including Hands
All Over, which was certified gold by the RIAA in December 2010. In
addition, frontman Adam Levine has joined the lineup of coaches for
NBC's highly anticipated new series The Voice that will premiere on
Tuesday, April 26 (9-11 p.m. ET).
