Baby Driver – Music from the Motion Picture is the soundtrack album to the 2017 film of the same name. The soundtrack was released on June 23, 2017, on CD, vinyl and digital music via the Columbia Records imprint, 30th Century Records.[1] The album features a combination of artists, from various decades, including Blur, Run the Jewels, Sky Ferreira, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Queen, The Beach Boys, The Commodores, The Steve Miller Band, Simon & Garfunkel, and Golden Earring.[2]

The film takes its name from "Baby Driver," a song from the Simon & Garfunkel album Bridge over Troubled Water. The song is played during the end credits.[3][4] Edgar Wright, who wrote and directed the film, consulted James Gunn, who wrote and directed Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, before the release of Vol. 2 to ensure the two films did not feature the same songs on their soundtracks.[5]

The soundtrack features three original tracks: a cover of "Easy" by Sky Ferreira; "Chase Me" by Danger Mouse (featuring Run the Jewels and Big Boi); and "Was He Slow?" by Kid Koala.[2]

The soundtrack won the Empire Award for Best Soundtrack at the 23rd Empire Awards.[6]
