Springsteen and the E Street Band have shared performance videos from their Minneapolis tour opener, featuring a cover of “Purple Rain” and a new song, “Streets of Minneapolis.”
The musician, who was a member of the E Street Band in 1974, contributed to the albums ‘The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle’ and ‘Born to Run.’
The singer framed his return to the stage with a call for civic virtues and democratic values during the opening night of his 2024 tour.
The song, performed at a get-out-the-vote event, directly references the 2020 killing of George Floyd and the subsequent military response.
The artist states his impending tour will be political, framing his concerts as a form of direct communication in the current climate.
In a new interview, Bruce Springsteen positions his forthcoming tour with the E Street Band as a necessary communal event for the current moment.
The artist will play a solo acoustic set at the Minnesota State Capitol this Saturday, headlining a pro-democracy event.
An assembly of iconic artists gathered at New York’s Riverside Church for a special anniversary event supporting the independent news outlet.
