Obama selected “Gaslighter,” the title track to the Grammy-winning country trio’s latest album, as one of his favorite songs of the summer.
The Chicks are among a long list of artists on Obama’s yearly playlist, alongside revered Americana artist Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit‘s “Be Afraid” and Sheryl Crow‘s classic hit, “All I Wanna Do.”
Other artists included on the playlist are John Legend, Rihanna, Otis Redding, Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan, Beyoncé and more.
“Over the past few months, I’ve spent a lot of time listening to music with my family. I wanted to share some of my favorites from the summer,” the 44th president writes. “As always, it’s a mix of genres that travels through various eras. I think there’s something in here for everybody –– hope you enjoy it.”
The Chicks are performing during the Democratic National Convention livestream on Thursday that begins at 9 p.m. ET.
