A look at each state’s favorite band, via The Echo Nest, which, according to TIME, “provides a music intelligence platform to hugely popular services like Rdio, Spotify and MTV, so they have a ton of data on what people across America like to listen to. By digging into this well of information they were able to discern what states listen to specific bands more than other states and created a map that displays that data.”

The Dave Matthews Band was Virginia’s favorite, while West Virginia aligned with Matchbox 20.
