Labor Day Playlist

Sizzling grills, kids playing in the yard, the sound of a beer can popping open — these are the refreshing and welcoming sounds of a successful Labor Day. Though they are tough to compete with, we think that playing a few tunes at your last summer soirée will only enhance the feel good relaxing mood for the day. When composing a playlist for Labor Day, you should include a mix of celebration and summer send-off music that focuses on all of the hard work you've put in throughout the year.
