New Hampshire locals are mainstays in the greater New England music scene,

and enjoy a tradition of jam bands, punk, and hip-hop that is all their own. Aerosmith's founding members first met at a jam show in New Hampshire, and the state has produced acts including The Bruisers, Ray LaMontagne, GG Allin, Mandy Moore, and JoJo.
