Dancin’ In The Country – Tyler Hubbard

Imagine you’re sitting on a beach kicking a soccer ball around with your friends, and this song comes on: a pop country song mixed with some beach soccer. It's a perfect mix. This song by Tyler Hubbard brings all the fun vibes and makes you want to get up and dance. Even if you don’t know what a two-step is, this song is guaranteed to make you start moving. 

And for everyone saying, “I hate country music,” just give the song a try – it’s impossible not to like it.

Michael Franti & Spearhead - Say Hey (I Love You)

This song just gives me that vibe. The island beats, the smooth harmonies, they make me feel like I’m in the warm sun.  I don’t know why, but I’ve always associated it with the chill side of soccer, kicking a ball at the beach, playing some pickup with friends. I mis-remember listening to this song during the Euros in 2008 (the song didn’t debut until September). Regardless of my s*** memory, this song is great and is always on my summer playlists.

You Give Love a Bad Name – Bon Jovi

A high-energy rock track with a strong chorus. It brings back classic '80s vibes and fits well for an upbeat playlist.

Out of Touch – Daryl Hall & John Oates

A catchy pop tune with a smooth rhythm. Adds a retro feel that balances the playlist.

One More Time – Daft Punk

“One More Time” is just one of those songs that makes you want to move. It’s upbeat, easy to vibe with, and perfect for blasting when you’re out at the beach, playing in the sand, or kicking the ball around with friends.

Balu Brigada - Designer

This summer, the vibe is chill. We’re taking time for ourselves, and our music should reflect that introspective outlook. Balu Brigada’s hit track “Designer” features a hypnotic melody that feels perfect for a warm, sunny day at the beach, a scenic road trip with your favorite people, or a night in as you fade out. The chorus takes these vibes and amplifies them with a catchy, reverberated harmony that is sure to stay in your ear long after the song fades out.
