LOS ANGELES (SEPT. 7, 2022) — For nearly half a century, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band have exemplified the crowd-pleasing, soul-shaking, energy-exploding excitement of rock and roll onstage. From an intimate look into Springsteen’s creative process to shedding light on how he became – and remains – one of the greatest live performers in rock and roll history, the GRAMMY Museum®’s Bruce Springsteen Live! explores the evolution of Springsteen through the decades and grants exclusive backstage access to Springsteen and the E Street Band’s legendary performances. The Museum is also asking all Springsteen fans to be part of the exhibit by submitting a video sharing their live concert experiences from Springsteen shows over the years. Excerpts of this will be part of a new exhibit film and can be seen throughout the gallery. On September 23rd, Springsteen’s 73rd birthday, the museum is inviting fans to stop by and share their stories in-person and on-camera and wish Bruce a Happy Birthday. In partnership with The Bruce Springsteen Archives and Center for American Music at Monmouth University, the traveling exhibit launches at the Museum’s downtown Los Angeles location on Oct. 15 and will run through April 2, 2023.
