The Weekend Starter Session: Vol. 3

The work week is over. Your friends are ready. The first Trade Eights is cracked open. That's exactly the moment we had in mind when we built Weekend Starter Vol. 3, the latest addition to the Trade Eights Playlist Series.

Unlike our more laid-back Golden Hour playlist, Weekend Starter is designed to bring the energy up. It's the soundtrack for rooftop hangs, backyard gatherings, patio sessions, lake days, and those nights that start with "just one drink" and end up becoming the highlight of the weekend.

This volume blends feel-good indie, modern groove, dance-pop, and electronic favorites. The goal wasn't to create a party playlist—it was to create a playlist that feels like the beginning of a great night.

As with all Trade Eights playlists, we've curated a mix that balances discovery with familiarity—songs you know, songs you'll rediscover, and hopefully a few new favorites you'll add to your own rotation.

So whether you're hosting friends, heading to the beach, firing up the grill, or just celebrating the fact that it's finally Friday, pour yourself a Trade Eights and press play.

Good cocktails. Good company. Good music. 🍹🎶
