Being from Maine, my choices are extremely limited. As for those who've actually had albums come out on major labels (or at least distributed by), I'm forced to go with either Howie Day or Rustic Overtones.

Blues don't count.

And most of those artists well, let's just say I don't like them.

Disturbed had a decent debut followed up by two really unremarkable albums.

King's X

In high school, the best band in our area was The Judy's. They are long gone although I wish they would re-release their stuff on cd.
