Jesse Royal Carmichael (born April 2, 1979) is the keyboardist, rhythm guitarist and backing vocalist in the American pop rock band Maroon 5. He is also known for his solo project, which is called 1863 and his side project titled Circuit Jerks.
Carmichael was born in Boulder, Colorado, United States. His father, Bob Carmichael, is a photographer, who also takes pictures during Maroon 5's tours. Jesse also has a younger sister, Annie. He first started playing the guitar in junior high, rather than the keyboards (for which he is known in the band Maroon 5). Some time later, Carmichael, along with Adam Levine, Mickey Madden, and Ryan Dusick, started a band called Kara's Flowers and signed a recording contract with Reprise Records. In 1997, they released their debut (and only) album, The Fourth World. The album found little success and, after the demise of the group, Carmichael and Levine attended Five Towns College. While in college, Carmichael began to play the keyboards. However, two years later, Levine and Carmichael dropped out and headed back to California.
All of the Kara's Flowers members eventually met up and formed Maroon 5, with the addition of guitarist, James Valentine.
On March 9, 2012, Carmichael was announced to take a break from playing in Maroon 5, for an undetermined amount of time to focus more on his studies of "music and the healing arts" (spiritual healing). However, two years later (in 2014), he returned to the band in time to record for their fifth studio album, entitled V.
Carmichael joined with musician and producer Jason Lader, are formed a side project titled Circuit Jerks and released the extended play titled EP1 on September 9, 2016.
