Did you know? Every day, Spotify curates a special playlist based on what it thinks your mood is that day. We’ve curated a special playlist for Northern Virginia, perfect for listening on the metro, stuck in traffic, or riding your bike along the Potomac River.
Press play on each of the songs to give them a listen.
“Arlandria” by the Foo Fighters
Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl spent much of his childhood in Virginia, living in both Springfield and Arlington. He even attended Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology during his freshman year. Bonus: the title is said to be a blend of Arlington and Alexandria.
“Sweet Virginia” by The Rolling Stones
How could we not include this one? Living in the sweet, sweet state of Virginia, we can picture ourselves driving, or should we say crawling, down I-95 with our windows down as this song blares in the background.
“Born to Run” by Bruce Springsteen
With Arlington recently being named the fittest city in the US, we thought this song was the perfect fit — see what we did there. We’re truly a community that is born to run… along the Potomac River, the Washington + Old Dominion Trail, and more.
“The Subway” by Chappell Roan
This one is for the metro and the metro only. Chappell Roan’s newest single is the perfect tune to pop on while cruising on NOVA’s public transit.
“Blue Ridge Mountains” by the Fleet Foxes
Virginia is home to part of the Blue Ridge Mountains, making this the quintessential playlist addition to inspire a hike on the scenic trails.
Now shuffle our playlist. Is there another song you would add to NOVA’s daylist? Let us know, and we’ll add it to our ongoing mix.
