Exclusive! Thompson Square Created Your Perfect Road-Trip Playlist
Just in time for your next Summer road trip, Thompson Square's Shawna and Keifer Thompson have created a fun road-trip playlist for POPSUGAR! The married duo and chart-topping country act knows a thing or two about great music, and they shared some of their favorite songs for this catchy mix. "We like tunes that remind us of 'back in the day.' Songs that have a killer groove, great lyrics — the ones you hear and get mad because you didn't write them," said Keifer, adding, "We're a big fan of those loud guitars. They make us want to drive fast!" Shawna agreed, saying, "We're both big blues fans, too, so those songs always make the list. When it's late and the road is long, putting on the Merle Haggard box set or any classic country and letting it roll is a great choice. That's what we both were raised on."
