The Maroon 5 frontman also confirmed new music is in the works.
When it comes to Maroon 5 fans, it sounds like Adam Levine’s kids are among their most knowledgeable.
During an appearance on SiriusXM’s The Morning Mash Up, the frontman reveals his youngsters are experts when it comes to the bands two-decade-spanning discography.
“The cool thing about my kids is they’re obsessed with the band,” he says. Levine shares three children with wife Behati Prinsloo: daughters Dusty Rose, 7, and Gio Grace, 6, and his 1-year-old son, whose name has not been shared.
“It’s interesting to see because they know songs that I don’t even remember writing or singing,” Levine admits. The proud dad gave a special shout-out to his firstborn daughter, calling her a Maroon 5 “historian.”
That may turn out to be a challenge considering Levine confirms new Maroon 5 music is in the works, three years after their most recent studio album, Jordi. The forthcoming tracks are set to be even more special as the “She Will Be Loved” singer says they won’t be having co-writers this time.
“We’re definitely making new music and the cool thing is that I really, after, I don’t know, 13, 12, 13 years of doing co-writes, I finally have shut everybody out and it’s just me and the band making the songs,” he says, “so there’s no more of that.”
According to Levine, there’s been no shortage of inspiration either. “It’s like I feel like the floodgates have kind of just opened again and it’s crazy because if I had been writing up until now on my own, I might not feel the same way and might not have poured out,” he explains. “There’s so much creativity kind of pouring out right now, so I feel like I’m in a pretty amazing spot.”
The former Voice coach has previously included his family in his music work, having featured one or both of his daughters and supermodel wife in the band’s music videos for “Middle Ground” in 2023 and “Girls Like You” in 2018.
“We have so much fun together that we always want to be together, so we make that happen,” Prinsloo previously told ET. “…We’re just a good team.”
