Thanksgiving is one of those few times of the year when we get together with family and friends. The perfect occasion for everyone to come together and be grateful for each other. While everyone has their own traditions when it comes to Thanksgiving, the whole idea behind it is to come together and celebrate. You might be the traditional kind who loves to have large get-togethers with plates filled with juicy turkey and delicious side dishes and kids running around. Or you prefer a more modern celebration with just a few friends and wine and potluck and movie marathons. No matter what your style, a thanksgiving playlist to add to the spirit of the holiday is what you need!
We have rounded up soundtracks that will fit every Turkey Day celebration. From traditional soulful songs expressing thankfulness to more upbeat songs that capture the meaning of this day and some for the kids as well. Our Thanksgiving playlist has something for everyone!
