How musical preferences differ from place to place? Who are the top ten top acts in California, and how do they compare to New York? Pandora analyzed mountains of listener data to see which artists had the most station adds in the last year.
Some of the results are obvious (Drake), but there were a lot of surprises like Five Finger Death Punch, Nickelback and ACDC. Check out the state by state list:
