Listen Live

Thanksgiving isn’t just about the turkey, stuffing, and pumpkin pie—it’s also about creating the perfect vibe for a day of gratitude. Whether you’re hosting a family feast or enjoying a laid-back gathering with friends, country music can bring a little extra warmth to your holiday.

Here are a few ideas to make your Thanksgiving playlist stand out:

Country artists know how to express thankfulness like no one else. Add songs like:

…will tug at your heartstrings and bring everyone closer.

3. Celebrating with Food

Got food on your mind? Include fun tracks like:

  • “Where I Come From “ by Alan Jackson

  • “Biscuits” by Kacey Musgraves

  • “Chicken Fried” by Zac Brown Band
