When we think of popular musicians, we tend to forget the city and state from which they had originated from — who knows, for instance, that John Mayer hails from Connecticut and that Ariana Grande is from Florida? Not us.

To get a better sense of some of the most successful musicians each state has produced, we mapped the top-selling musicians from each state in 2019, using data provided by ticket marketplace Vivid Seats. The musicians shown here are those who sold the most in concert ticket sales in 2019. For musical artists, it's calculated based on the city they were born in (except for Reggie Watts, who was born in Germany but grew up in Montana), while for bands, it's the city where the band got their start.

Rock and pop music are, unsurprisingly, among the best-selling genres in 2019, at least in terms of concert tickets. 13 of the top-selling musicians are rock musicians, including the rock bands Kansas (who come from — you guessed it — Kansas) and The Lumineers (from Colorado). Pop music artists follow close behind with 12 states, and include the Jonas Brothers (New Jersey), Ariana Grande (Florida) and Billie Eilish (California). Meanwhile, one of the few hip hop artists to make the list comes from one of the most unexpected places — Wiz Khalifa, straight out of… Minot, North Dakota.
