Market Basket Releases Two-Hour St. Patrick’s Day Music Mix on Spotify
The New England grocery chain Market Basket just dropped a lively St. Patrick’s Day playlist on Spotify, blending Boston favorites with classic Irish hits.
With a playful touch, they announced “Get ready to shamrock and roll!” across their Facebook pages to promote the two-hour music collection.
The Dropkick Murphys’ “I’m Shipping Up To Boston” kicks off the mix – a powerful anthem that’s become the unofficial theme song at Fenway Park and city celebrations. The songs bounce between local favorites and Irish-flavored tracks.
Boston’s own music legends leave their footprint throughout the playlist. Aerosmith, who got their start in the city’s venues in 1970, appears alongside fellow locals The Pixies and the band Boston.
Big crowd-pleasing hits fill the playlist. KISS delivers “Rock And Roll All Nite,” while Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin'” and AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck” keep the momentum going.
Celtic-punk rockers Flogging Molly bring the edge, while The Blarney Lads and The High Kings deliver traditional Irish songs that feel like stepping into a Dublin pub.
The song selection mirrors Market Basket’s strong New England roots. Since opening in 1917, they’ve maintained close ties to their local community.
Spotify has changed how stores connect with music fans. The platform allows customers to instantly access carefully curated store playlists.
St. Patrick’s season brings out clever marketing phrases. Market Basket joined in with their own fun twist to showcase their music mix.
The complete 36-song playlist is available now on Spotify. It’s designed to keep the party going through the holiday without repeating tracks.
