Bio(s)
Train leaped out of a three-year hiatus with its fifth studio album, Save Me San
Francisco, which has become the biggest release of their 16-year career. The
lead single “Hey Soul Sister” broke records and took over speakers everywhere to
become the top selling track on iTunes in 2010. The hit song peaked at No.1 in
the United States and in 15 countries abroad and also garnered the 2011 Grammy
Award for Pop Performance By a Duo or Group with Vocals in February. Train’s
second single “If It’s Love” also hit #1 last year, and their current single
“Marry Me” continues to move up the charts. The trio is best known for their
monster 2002 hit “Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)” that was nominated for five Grammy
awards, winning two, including Best Rock Song.
Maroon 5 will co-headline the Main Stage Concert with Train performing hits from
their third studio album, Hands All Over. The album produced their third No.1
hit with “Misery,” topping the charts in the fall of 2010. The band was part of
the pregame festivities for Super Bowl XLV in February, performing “Never Gonna
Leave This Bed,” the new single from the album. The band won the Grammy Award
for Best New Artist in 2005, and their biggest hits include “Won’t Go Home
Without You,” “She Will Be Loved” and “Makes Me Wonder”.
