The Maine is an American rock band formed in Tempe, Arizona, in 2007. Known for their embrace of pop-rock and alternative sounds, the band consists of John O'Callaghan (vocals, guitar), Kennedy Brock (guitar, vocals), Jared Monaco (lead guitar), Garrett Nickelsen (bass), and Pat Kirch (drums). The band's name isn’t derived from the state of Maine but rather from a song called "Coast of Maine" by Ivory. Over the years, The Maine has gained a loyal fan base through their energetic performances and dedicated interaction with fans.

Their discography features a series of releases that blend heartfelt lyrics with catchy melodies, as displayed in their most recent work, which includes songs like "thoughts I have while lying in bed" and acoustic renditions that showcase their versatility, such as "blame (acoustic)." The album "XOXO: From Love & Anxiety In Real Time" showcases the band's matured sound and continues to build on their emotive songwriting skills. Collaborative pieces such as "Loved You A Little," which features Taking Back Sunday and Charlotte Sands, exhibit their ability to blend their unique style with other artists. Constantly reimagining their music — with remixes like "Sticky (The Knocks Remix)" and stripped-down versions like "Sticky (with SHAED) [Piano Version]" — The Maine continues to innovate within the rock scene while maintaining the earnest heart that has defined their career for over a decade.
