Whether you're headed to the beach, grilling in your backyard, or watching fireworks on the Esplanade, this playlist is built to be the perfect soundtrack for your all-American celebration. And remember, Country 102.5 is celebrating too! Make sure you listen all day on Friday, July 4 for the perfect patriotic summer playlist!

Country Songs That Celebrate America

Toby Keith - Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue

The post-9/11 anthem that still hits hard with a patrotic punch.

Brooks & Dunn - Only In America

Equal parts hopeful and nostalgic, this classic reminds up what's possible in the land of opportunity.

Lee Greenwood - God Bless The USA

No 4th of July playlist is complete without this emotional salute to our country.

Toby Keith - Made In America

A celebration of American values, hard work ethic, and pride for your country.

Martina McBride - Independence Day

A powerful song about freedom on more than one level.

Summer Vibes & Backyard Anthems

Kenny Chesney - American Kids

A feel-good anthem about growing up in the heartland.

Brad Paisley - American Saturday Night

A light-hearted reminder that America is a big melting pot - and a fun one at that.

Zac Brown Band - Chicken Fried

Cold beer on a Friday night? Check. This song is a summer tradition.

Florida Georgia Line - Cruise

It's not about the flag, but it sure brings the summer heat.

Country Songs for the Fireworks Finale

Tim McGraw - If You're Reading This

A moving tribute to those who serve and sacrifice.

Dierks Bentley - Home

A patriotic ballad that honors the resilience and strength of the American spirit.

Nostalgic, emotional - ideal for a fireworks backdrop.
