Great music can be found all across the United States and while there are music meccas like New York, Los Angeles, and Detroit, every state has a famous band that calls it home.
To determine the most famous band from every state, Insider looked at reputation, record sales, and awards. Each band was considered within its own era, so just because a band is popular now doesn't mean it's nudged out the biggest band from another decade.
We stuck to bands only - no solo artists here - but used the term "band" loosely, including any musical act consisting of more than one person. We focused mostly on the state where each band originally formed, but also considered where their music was popularized, as well as artists' hometowns.
Check out which band is making your state proud.
