Chicago Cubs Walkup Songs

Wrigley Field · Chicago

The Cubs' walkup tradition

Wrigley Field walkup music is constrained by the stadium's quirky old PA system — songs with cleaner mixes work much better than bass-heavy tracks. The Cubs roster picks lean rock and pop, with Pete Crow-Armstrong, Seiya Suzuki, and the team's Japanese-American players bringing a unique playlist mix.

The most iconic Cubs walkup moment

Anthony Rizzo's 2016 World Series at-bats — and the entire 108-year-curse-breaking run — produced walkup moments that are still part of Wrigley culture, even after Rizzo's move to the Yankees.

How to use Cubs walkup songs for your team

Whether you're coaching Little League, travel ball, high school, or college baseball, picking a walkup song from a Chicago Cubs player is one of the cleanest ways to give a kid a confidence boost at the plate. The trick: most MLB walkups need a careful trim point — the 15-second window is rarely the song's first 15 seconds.

  1. Pick the Cubs player whose walkup style fits the kid (power hitter, leadoff, closer, etc.)
  2. Open the song's page on this site to see the recommended trim window
  3. Build your roster in Walkup Pro, assign the song, and set the trim
  4. Connect a Bluetooth speaker at the field and tap to play on game day
