Maroon 5 Working on Second Album :

Group Maroon 5 shot to star power with the release of "Songs About Jane," the group is working on their second album.

"Songs About Jane" peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 after 67 weeks from its June 2002 release. Their debut sold 4 million copies in the U.S. and includes the hits "This Love," "Sunday Morning," "She Will Be Loved," and "Harder to Breathe."

?Now at least we know that we have the world?s ear, and I think that does bring some confidence, but at the same time, we?re not going to stop really pushing ourselves to develop our songcraft,? guitarist James Valentine told Billboard.

The band does not appear to have a clear-cut direction as of yet, but say they are leaning towards a uptempo set of songs.

We re kind of re-creating the sort of vibe that we had set up when we were writing the songs for the first record, where we rented a house and got some instruments set up,Valentine told Billboard.

But to expectant Maroon fans, you re going to have to wait a while, as the album is just in its fetus-stage and won t be born for a while.

In the meantime, September 20 will see the release of Friday the 13thLive at The Santa Barbara Bowl," which is a CD or DVD that includes previously unreleased songs.

Maroon 5 is also busy with summer touring. Theyll be in England for the V Festivals on August 20th and Staffordshire on the 21st, and they will also be opening a few times for none other than the Rolling Stones.
