Whether you're road-tripping with friends, lighting up the backyard with sparklers, or just posted up by the pool with a popsicle in hand, the Fourth of July calls for one thing (besides sunscreen): the perfect playlist. We’ve rounded up an all-star lineup of bangers, ballads, and anthems that scream red, white, and mood-boosted. From nostalgic throwbacks to fresh releases, these songs are made for celebrating summer—and the stars and stripes.

You’ll find patriotic powerhouses like Dolly Parton’s “Color Me America” and Lee Greenwood’s timeless “God Bless The U.S.A.,” plus some pop perfection courtesy of Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, and Demi Lovato. Country fans can blast Toby Keith, Zach Top, and Megan Moroney, while Swifties will catch the not-so-subtle sparkle of “Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince.” Throw in a little Springsteen and a dash of Benson Boone, and you’ve got a playlist worthy of any fireworks finale.
