"Sunny and 75" is a song written by Michael Dulaney, Jason Sellers, and Paul Jenkins and recorded by American country music artist Joe Nichols. It was released in May 2013 as his first single for Red Bow Records, and is featured on his eight album Crickets (2013). The song is about the narrator wanting to make a romantic moment with his lover by going to a mood-specific location. It received positive reviews from music critics.

"Sunny and 75" gave Nichols his fourth number-one country hit on the Billboard Country Airplay chart and his first top 10 hit on the Hot Country Songs chart at number 4. It also charted at number 39 on the Hot 100, his fifth top 40 hit on that chart. The song was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and has sold 529,000 copies in the United States as of January 2014. It received similar chart success in Canada, giving Nichols his first number-one hit on the Country chart and reaching number 49 on the Canadian Hot 100.

The accompanying music video for the song was directed by Brian Lazzaro and has Nichols hanging out on the beach with his love interest.

The song is an uptempo song in which the male narrator expresses a desire to be "somewhere sunny and 75" with his lover. The song is in the key of C major with a chord pattern of F_sus2-A_m7-G-C/E.

Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song three and a half stars out of five, writing that "the story and emotions don’t quite sink into one’s heart the way a great love song will, but the chorus is a bit of an earworm — one you won’t mind welcoming again and again." Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the song four out of five, saying that "it's a well-written and executed song that's exactly what radio and fans want in the spring of 2013 and should be enough to get fans excited for new Joe Nichols music."
