My Take
Jesse Carmichael strikes me as the quiet anchor of Maroon 5, which is exactly why I find him interesting. Born in Boulder, Colorado, in 1979 and schooled at Five Towns College, he is the keyboardist and rhythm guitarist, and one of only two original members left alongside Adam Levine. In a band built around a front man, sticking around that long while staying out of the spotlight takes a particular temperament. I also like that he keeps creative outlets going beyond the day job, with a solo project called 1863 and a side project, Circuit Jerks. That itch to make his own thing reads as genuine to me.
