Eddie Vedder has teamed up with Jack White’s Third Man Records and the Chicago Cubs to release a special edition 7” single available exclusively with tickets to the Cubs game on Friday, July 6, at Wrigley Field.
Pitchfork reports the A-side of the limited edition vinyl, colored red and blue, will feature Vedder’s ode to the Cubs “All the Way,” while a 1984 performance of “Go, Cubs, Go,” by Cubs songwriter Steve Goodman, will fill the B-side.
Jack White and Third Man have partnered with sports teams in the past. Last August, according to Pitchfork, White and Third Man teamed up with the Detroit Tigers to offer an exclusive 7” that featured “Strike Out,” on blue and orange vinyl, with a percentage of the proceeds benefitting the Kirk Gibson Foundation and The Detroit Tigers Foundation.
Earlier this year, Jambase reported Pearl Jam will embark on an upcoming U.S. tour that will include stops in the Chicago Ballpark August 18 and 20. On August 5, 2016, Pearl Jam played “release” at the Chicago stadium. Check out the video below.
