Adam Levine

My name is Adam Noah Levine ,I was born on March 18, 1979 I’m an American singer-songwriter, musician and occasional actor best known as the front man and lead singer of American pop rock band Maroon5. I am also a coach on the American talent show The Voice.
I was born in Los Angeles to Fred and Patsy (née Noah) Levine. I have two uncles, journalist and author Timothy Noah. and Peter Noah, atelevision producer and writer. I have two siblings, Michael and Julia, and two half-siblings, Eliza and Sam.
I attended French Woods Festival of the Performing Arts Camp (Hancock, NY) with bestfriend Jesse Carmichael, guitar player of the band known at that time as Kara's Flowers.
I have Jewish ancestry on both sides of his family (his father and maternal grandfather were Jewish), and considersmyself Jewish, though according to The Jewish Chronicle, who interviewed me, I "have rejected formal religious practice for a more generalized, spiritual way of life". I chose not to have a BarMitzvah as a child.
In September 1995, me along with fellow Brentwood School student Jesse Carmichael, Mickey Madden and Ryan Dusick formed garage band Kara's Flowers. The band released their first albumtitled The Fourth World in 1997 as high school seniors. That same year the band appeared on an episode of Beverly Hills, 90210. The album had little success, and its only single, "Soap Disco", failedcommercially. Disappointed with the results of their album, the band members went their separate ways.
Me and Carmichael left Los Angeles for New York, exposing them to different musicscenes. On MTV News, in 2002, Levine said, "That's when I started waking up to the whole hip hop, R&B thing. We had friends named Chaos and shit. It was not Brentwood High."

I worked a two-week stint as awaiter at Johnny Rockets. After dropping out of Five Towns College, Levine and Jesse reunited with Mickey and Ryan, but added former Square guitarist,James Valentine in 2001. Renaming the band...
