The Maine Pioneer Review

The Maine are truly “Pioneers” with the release of their fourth studio album Pioneer. The band consists of John O Callaghan , Pat Kirch, Kennedy Brock, Garrett Nickelson and Jared Monaco. The band hit it big with their song “ Girls Do What They Want” from their first full length album Can’t Stop , Won’t Stop. These boys have come a long way from their days driving around Tempe Arizona in a white rental van playing small clubs. The Maine’s album has come a long way since the band first started, Pioneer  is pleasantly different. When listening to Pioneer you would not think its an album from 2011, it has the feel of an 1970s rock vibe to it, almost rock with an hint of country. Some songs that really stand out on this fourteen track album are Identify, My Heroine, When I’m At Home, Thinking Of You & Waiting For My Sun To Shine. With the release of Pioneer, the band recently took a trip to Brazil as part of The Pioneer Tour. The Maine played several shows to sold out crowds and will be heading across the pond to the U.K. this January as well. With the release of Pioneer, it has taken The Maine on a journey and they are taking their fans along for the ride. If there is one album you purchase this year make it Pioneer.
