BRUCE IN THE USA
The Worlds #1 Tribute to Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band
Bruce Springsteen – High Hopes
This new vlog post features the cover song High Hopes recorded by Bruce Springsteen during the Greatest Hits session.
The song was written by Tim Scott in 1987, and released on his debut album, “The High Lonesome Sound”. The song was used in the low budget film, Slamdance.
Bruce’s version of High Hopes is the same version as was recorded for the film documentary Blood Brothers in 1995.
Review of Boston Show
The city was essentially a ghost town, but a pocket of devoted fans were tweeting at Matt and begging the band to make the drive from Brooklyn to Boston. Myself included; we made it clear that if Bruce in the USA found their way, they’d play to a captive audience.”
To Clarence Clemons…The Jungleland Solo
I was honored to finally meet Clarence Clemons. We laughed, we talked shop and I was humbled by his kindness. Clarence will always be an indelible link to Bruce Springsteen and his music.

I Wish I Were Blind – Bruce Springsteen
There are certain Bruce Springsteen songs that may not have changed the world but somehow changed us. You know the ones. These are songs that may not have been the most popular tracks on a record. These songs may not have received much or any radio airplay. These are the songs that for one reason or another found their way into your heart and spoke directly to you. You know the ones!
Mike Macaluso
Mike Macaluso became a friend of Bruce In the USA after working with us as our audio engineer on several gigs in Florida. What stuck out about Mike other than him being an amazing engineer is his vast knowledge of the works of Bruce Springsteen. Not only does Mike know technical aspects to the inner workings of a Springsteen concert, Mike is a huge fan! He has the most expansive collection of concert bootleg and rare Springsteen recordings we have ever heard of. We were so blown away by Mikes extensive Bruce library, his passion for Bruce's music and Mike's first hand technical knowledge of bruce's touring machine, that we asked him to be a regular guest blogger on Bruceintheusa.com.
About BRUCE IN THE USA
“The most powerful and intense Springsteen tribute on the planet”
~ Legends, LV.
Bruce In The USA is much more than just another tribute…
This high-energy musical experience is a note-perfect and visually accurate recreation of a Bruce Springsteen & The E St. Band show.
Matt Ryan has performed the “Springsteen” character as a cast member of the “World Famous” Legends In Concert since the year 2000. For more than a decade, Matt has worked as a professional live performance artist in full scale production shows on the Las Vegas Strip and around the world. After years of perfecting his craft in thousands of shows, Matt has evolved the “Springsteen” character into the national touring show it has become today.
BRUCE IN THE USA.
The Bruce In The USA Band consists of seasoned world class professional musicians, from such acts/bands as Queen/Paul Rogers, Meatloaf, Blue Oyster Cult, Hall and Oats, Joe Cocker, The Ojays, Aretha Franklin, David Cassidy, The Temptations, Slash… and so many more. This high end, powerhouse, band has taken this genre of performance art to a whole new level, making it the World’s #1 Tribute to the E Street Band’s musical legacy. To millions of diehard fans around the world, it’s Springsteen’s marathon, party-like performances that have elevated him to hero status. Bruce’s legendary concerts (in the largest arenas) sell-out within hours of their announced sale. For those even lucky enough to get a ticket, there was nothing that could fill the aching void in between Bruce’s long-awaited tours…until now….
The Bruce In The USA show was born on the Las Vegas Strip in the winter of 2004, with its debut at the Aladdin Hotel and Casino’s majestic “V Theatre”. The show assaulted the senses in a fun-filled and exciting party atmosphere on the Vegas Strip, while suspending disbelief for even the toughest skeptics. They’ve been met with critical acclaim, from the Stone Pony, Asbury Park, to large theatres, and Performance Art Centers across the country, where sell out crowds are on their feet from the first song to the last.
“Bruce In The USA is the ultimate celebration of Bruce Springsteen & The E St. Band’s legacy”.
