Summer Solstice Soundtrack

Today is the longest day of the year, so we’ve put together the perfect Solstice Soundtrack for you. If you want to hear these same songs with our witty banter, you can also turn on 95.9 The River, just sayin’.

“Smells Like Teen Spirit” – Nirvana: Kick off your day with this grunge anthem that defines a generation. Nothing says summer like teen spirit.

“Wonderwall” – Oasis: This timeless classic will have you reminiscing about summer days, even though we still kinda don’t know what a wonderwall is.

“Semi-Charmed Life” – Third Eye Blind: Its upbeat tempo and catchy lyrics make it a perfect summer anthem. It also sounds like something you’d hear in a Shrek movie, but that works. PS..win free 3EB tickets here.

“Under the Bridge” – Red Hot Chili Peppers: Reflect on the season with this introspective yet powerful tune. That’s not really how we talk, but we feel like Anthony Kiedis would be impressed with that description.

“Black Hole Sun” – Soundgarden: Add a touch of Seattle’s grunge scene to your summer playlist. I mean, the solstice is about the sun, the song is about the sun, and it’s from a band that lives in a town that gets no sun. Respect our wit!
