Bruce turns DJ and plays an hour of his favourite artists

Bruce turns DJ in this new series, recorded at his home in New Jersey where he's currently in lockdown with his wife Patti Scialfa. He plays an hour of his favourite artists.

We've all had to learn new things during the pandemic, and rock superstar Bruce Springsteen is no exception! Locked down at his home in new Jersey, alongside wife Patti Scialfa, he's turned himself into a radio DJ, and the result is this new Radio 2 series.

Broadcasting from his house, each week Bruce will be playing an hour of - as he describes them - "topical tunes for hard times", an eclectic mix of records from his own collection that he loves, and talking about the strange days that we find ourselves in. In this first programme you can hear music from Roy Orbison, Don Henley, Morrissey The Ska-talites, Ry Cooder, Common, Huey "Piano" Smith and more, while Bruce talks about how he & his family are coping with lockdown, what he misses most from pre-Covid days, his daily domestic routine and more.

He also pays tribute to health workers, and offers some thoughts & hopes for the way ahead , all delivered with the good humour & engagement of a master communicator, whatever the medium.
