Maine's Official 2024 Spotify Wrapped Revealed

Spotify Wrapped season is here. It’s that magical time when we collectively get roasted by our own playlists—because yes, “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” by The Darkness is still a vibe, at least on my playlist. But instead of just looking at our individual listening habits, I thought it would be fun to zoom out and peek into what all of Maine had on repeat this year.

Maine’s Top Artists of 2024

1. Taylor Swift
No surprises here. Taylor had us in a chokehold with her latest album, and we’re not mad about it. Like most years, Maine was full-on Swiftie Nation in 2024.

2. Zach Bryan
Zach's heartfelt lyrics and gravelly vocals struck a chord with Mainers this year. Whether you were driving down a quiet backroad or bundled up by the fire, his raw, emotional tunes felt like the perfect soundtrack for life in Vacationland

3. Morgan Wallen
Whether you love country or you’re just country curious, Morgan Wallen’s catchy anthems have been at every barbecue in the state, remaining a top Maine artist for the second year in a row.

4. Noah Kahan
New England’s folk-pop golden boy makes the list, proving that our collective seasonal depression has a soundtrack. Remember when he played the State Theatre in Portland October of 2022 before he blew up? Yeah, kicking myself for not going to that one.

5. Drake
Maine might feel miles away from Drake’s usual vibes, but apparently, we’ve been pretending we’re living it up in Toronto instead of Portland. The man can make you feel rich even when you’re budgeting for groceries.

Maine’s Top Songs of 2024

1. “Stick Season” by Noah Kahan
This track is basically Maine’s unofficial anthem at this point. I feel like everywhere I went this year, this song got at least one spin.

2. “I Remember Everything (feat. Kacey Musgraves)” by Zach Bryan
Yeah, it’s the Maine vibe: emotional, beautiful, and slightly rugged.

3. “Beautiful Things” by Benson Boone
Raw emotion and a soothing melody, this song finds beauty even in life’s messiest moments. Wow, Maine, we were emotional this year.

4. “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” by Shaboozey
Yup, the dude that came out of nowhere and gave us the summer 2024 party anthem. This banger had us cheers-ing craft beers and dancing at every summer event we went to.

5. “I Had Some Help (Feat. Morgan Wallen)” by Post Malone
Posty and Wallen teaming up? It’s the bromance anthem none of us knew we needed.

Maine’s Top Albums of 2024

1. The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology by Taylor Swift
What did you expect? Pretty sure this one ranked at least somewhere in the top 5 in each state in the US.

2. Stick Season by Noah Kahan
This album is like a warm hug on a cold day—it’s been spinning here nonstop this year.

3. One Thing At A Time by Morgan Wallen
Country music in the Pine Tree state has always been a thing, so it's not surprising to see Morgan on Maine's Wrapped list for a second year.

4. The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess by Chappell Roan
Three big hits, almost simoultaneously, brought some flair to Maine this year, and we loved every second of it. Sometimes you need a Midwest queen to shake things up.

5. Zach Bryan by Zach Bryan
Zach Bryan’s self-titled album became the go-to for moody nights by the fire pit. If you didn’t hear this on your neighbor’s Bluetooth speaker, were you even outside?
