Six crowd-first chants about weekends, stadiums and parades, written in the afterglow of the mixtape.

Liner notes

After the mixtape, people started shouting our hooks back at us in parking lots, so we leaned all the way in. These six were written like a Friday-to-Sunday run: the clock-out bell, the stadium at dawn, the cookout, the parade. Pocket added marching-band snares and little video-game blips, and Skye wrote her hooks the way a pep-rally captain would, loud and simple and impossible to forget.
