Days later, the “Payphone” performers will debut the song atThe Voiceseason finale on May 23 and will release a music video the same day. The performance will mark Levine’s return to the singing competition show as he served as a coach from the first season in 2011, up until 2019.
Maroon 5 is also coming off the first run of shows at their Las Vegas residency titled M5LV.
In March, Levinecaught up with PEOPLE after opening nightabout their new venture and how the importance of family played a large role in crafting the Sin City residency, which is close to the band’s home base of Los Angeles.
“We’ve gotten to the point where we’ve almost just done it all. We’ve been doing it for this crazy long amount of time, and so we thought [a Vegas residency] was the logical next step because it was something that we had never embarked upon,” Levine, 44, told PEOPLE. “Also, over the years, Vegas has become this kind of beacon for everybody. … The timing of it all just makes sense to us.”

Levine also got emotional when addressing his father, Fred, who was on hand as well.
“It was a big opening night in Vegas,” Levine said. “It’s close to home and no one has to deal with, you know, traveling 10 hours with kids and jet lag.”
“It felt right. It felt really, really sweet to have everybody here. I wouldn’t have wanted to do it without them,” he added of his brood.
