Missed It Saturday Night? Watch Maine’s Role Model on SNL
Maine’s role model rocked SNL — and if you missed it live, the replay is just a click away!
Over the weekend, Mainers were proud, when one of our own took the stage on a little program you may have heard of.
Maine-born alt-pop artist Role Model, was the musical guest for this past weekends episode of Saturday Night Live, marking his official debut on the iconic sketch comedy show, just kicked off Season 51.
He performed two songs, "Some Protector" and "Sally, When The Wine Runs Out", which featured a surprise appearance from Charli xcx
The singer-songwriter, whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury, hails from Cape Elizabeth and has gained a loyal following for his emotionally honest lyrics and genre-blending sound.
He originally started out as a rapper, before transitioning into the melodic, driven pop music that he's known for today.
In interviews, he often mentions his Maine roots and how growing up here shaped his early outlook, before he moved to pursue music.

His latest album "Kansas Anymore" was released last year.
He appeared alongside SNL legend, Amy Poehler, who hosted for the first time since 2010.
Role Model has performed in venues around the U.S., including festivals, and on The Tonight Show, and just a few weeks ago, he appeared on The Today Show.
His performance was kind of a big deal, because, believe it or not, only Nick Noonan, who grew up in Old Town, has been the only other featured musical guest on SNL from Maine. He was one half of the duo Karmin, who took the stage, back in 2012.
