About

Bruce Springsteen’s recording career spans over 40 years, beginning with 1973's ‘Greetings from Asbury Park, NJ’ (Columbia Records). He has garnered 20 Grammys, won an Oscar and a Tony, been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, received a Kennedy Center Honor, and was MusiCares’ 2013 Person of the Year. Springsteen’s memoir ‘Born to Run’ (Simon & Schuster) and its companion album ‘Chapter and Verse’ were released in September 2016, and he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in November 2016. His historic 236-show run of ‘Springsteen on Broadway’ at Jujamcyn’s Walter Kerr Theatre from October 2017 to December 2018 also yielded an accompanying soundtrack album and Netflix special. Springsteen's most recent studio album 'Western Stars' was released in June 2019, reaching #1 on charts in over two dozen countries and hailed by critics as some of the finest music of his career. The ‘Western Stars’ film is a cinematic retelling of the record, weaving archival footage and Springsteen’s personal narration with song as Springsteen plays the album backed by a band and full orchestra.
