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, the film's director and screenwriter, consulted with James Gunn, screenwriter and director of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, before Vol. 2 released 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]
