August 2021 Playlist: Country Again

Hello August!! Have you planned out your last summer road trips before the days start to get shorter? Or before the kiddos head back to school? If you haven’t check out our blog posts for some summer road trip ideas:

Last month we talked about Ed Sheeran’s chart-topper ‘Bad Habits’ and Billie Eilish’s latest releases. while those are still chart-topping – we’ve got a few up and comers for you!

This year’s August 2021 Playlist: Country Again is a mix of oldies, upbeat dancing music, and one or two incredible songs that deserve to be background music to your next Instagram Reel! Also heavy on the country music – their producers must just be getting back into it after Covid! Play them while you’re checking off boxes on your summer bucket list, or taking a road trip to find the prettiest sunsets across the USA.

Happy 3+ Hours of Listening!!
