The Maine

The Maine has returned to the stage for their first headlining tour in two years, making their way across the United States before heading to Europe later this year. Joining them on this run is a stacked lineup featuring Nightly, Grayscale, Franklin Jonas & the Byzantines, Friday Pilots Club, Broadside, and Moody Joody who each bring their own energy to an already highly anticipated tour. 

With nearly two decades of music under their belt and ten studio albums to their name - the Main have built a reputation for delivering not just concerts but experiences. Even on a Sunday night in San Francisco it was a packed house at the Regency Ballroom. Their longevity in the music scene is a testament to both their evolving sound and connection they've maintained with their fans over the years. 

The setlist had a nice balance between nostalgia and new beginnings. Fans were able to sing along with a few of their classic hits and some new songs from their upcoming album (set to release April 10th) which gives a glimpse into the band's next chapter. Even new songs were met with enthusiasm proving that The Maine is still putting out music that connects with their fans. 

The Regency Ballroom was packed, and while the venue quickly filled with heat, bodies pressed shoulder to shoulder, the discomfort seemed almost irrelevant to those in attendance. From the main floor up to the balcony, fans moved around - dancing, swaying, and singing along without hesitation. While San Francisco had been unusually warm on this day the conditions only seemed to amplify the energy in the room. Nearly twenty years in The Maine are not chasing any relevance because they’ve already secured it. This tour doesn't just celebrate who they've been but reinforces why they continue to succeed and put out music that matters.
