Maroon 5, Gwen Stefani and more

The last in the program is American Maroon 5. In addition to their strong sense of melody, they also have a sense of fun. Singer Adam Levine and guitarist James Valentine, for example, were wooed by TV presenter Jimmy Fallon in November 2017 and appeared masked on the New York subway.

They dress like street musicians, put on glasses and wigs, put on fake beards and start playing in normal subway traffic.

First they played a cover version of Crazy Little Thing Called Love by the Queen of England, and at the end, when a small crowd gathered around them, they showed their faces. They then played Sugar, one of their biggest hits.

At that moment, the crowd that had gathered around the musicians grew bigger and started to become a real party. Maroon 5 was said to be holding a special event at the time as they were promoting their sixth album Red Pill Blues at the time.

Maroon 5 is coming to Prague in full force.

The band started playing in 1994 as Kara’s Flowers. He released three albums this way, but nothing special happened. But when he changed his name to Maroon 5 in 2001, interesting things started to happen. Already the first album Songs About Jane was successful and similar to other acts. The group currently has seven records.

Madonna and Gwen Stefani

American singer Gwen Stefani had an interesting blessing from Madonna, already in 2005, when she was on a solo path and had her first album called Love. Angel. Music. Baby. A famous colleague first accused him of copying his ideas.

Gwen Stefani will perform a number of her hits.

“He does it the same way. We work with roughly the same people, he is also married to an Englishman (it was Gwen Stefani, wife of the singer of the British group Bush Gavin Rossdale, editor’s note), she is blonde, and besides, she love fashion like I do,” Madonna began suddenly. But then he added with a smile: “But it doesn’t bother me.” She is beautiful and very talented.’

Gwen Stefani thanked him for that and has continued to follow in his footsteps. She designs clothes and also acts in films. Although he did not have much success worldwide, his voice is pleasant and his songs are catchy. He was also a member of the famous American band No Doubt, which ended in 2015.

Rag’n’Bone man and sweatpants

Singer and musician Rag’n’Bone Man became the discovery of 2016 in the UK, only to be confirmed a year later with the release of his first album Human. His second installment, Life by Misadventure, is from 2021 and includes a duet with American singer Pink.

Rag’n’Bone Man has a loud voice and powerful melodies.

When he married his longtime girlfriend Beth Rouy four years ago, he posted a photo of himself in nothing but the tracksuit from the ceremony. After all, wedding guests also have to come dressed for the ceremony. So that means he also has a sense of humor and wacky ideas.
