Bad Counselors Soundtrack (2026): Every Song
Bad Counselors (2026) Soundtrack: Full Song List & Credits
Bad Counselors is a dark comedy that follows two wildly incompetent and emotionally unstable high school guidance counselors who, instead of helping their students, accidentally embroil them in a series of chaotic, illegal, and hilarious misadventures. While trying to sabotage each other's careers for a coveted promotion, they inadvertently expose a massive campus scandal, forcing them to finally team up to save the school, and themselves, from total ruin.
If you spent half of Bad Counselors trying to figure out what songs were playing in the background during Grayson and Tyler's chaotic rivalry, this guide has you covered. Director Chris Dowling keeps the comedy fast-paced, packing the film with everything from fraternity party ragers to classic 80s rock and 2000s throwbacks. Music supervisor Kevin J. Edelman and composer Grant Fonda pull together a fun tracklist that matches the utter incompetence of the two guidance counselors at the center of the story.
The music kicks off early when Grayson (Matt Cornett) and Tyler (Ramon Reed) start prepping for a frat house party, backed by EagleWolfSnake’s alternative track 'Signs.' As the story moves away from campus and heads out to Camp Burning Bush, the song choices get even better—like Dayglow’s indie-pop hit 'Run the World!!!' playing on the bus ride, and Night Ranger's 80s anthem 'Sister Christian' blasting during an over-the-top Capture the Flag game countdown.
