Little Steven and The Disciples Of Soul To Perform At State Theatre New Jersey

originally published: 02/26/2018

Little Steven and The Disciples Of Soul To Perform At State Theatre New Jersey(NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ) -- State Theatre New Jersey presents Little Steven and The Disciples of Soul on Sunday, April 29, 2018 at 8:00pm. Little Steven and The Disciples of Soul released their album SOULFIRE in May 2017. The album sees the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer revisiting songs that span the length of his career as artist, performer, producer, arranger, and songwriter, focusing directly on the hugely influential “soul horns-meet-rock ‘n’ roll guitars” approach he first pioneered on Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes’ classic first three albums. Tickets for the concert range from $55-$125.

Little Steven and The Disciples of Soul made their long awaited return in October 2016, prompted by a friend’s request to perform at London’s BluesFest 2016. Steven Van Zandt had only just returned home from The E Street Band’s summer stadium run but as luck would have it, his autumn plans already included a trip to the UK to celebrate both his wife’s birthday and his friend Bill Wyman’s 80th.

Van Zandt quickly put together a Disciples of Soul for the 21st century, an “ever-changing group of misfits, rogues, and roustabouts” complete with three backing vocalists and a full horn section currently featuring original Asbury Jukes/Miami Horns saxophonists Stan Harrison (tenor), and Eddie Manion (baritone). Van Zandt and his 15-piece big band crossed the Atlantic and blew the roof off London’s indigo at The O2 with what was supposed to be just a “one-night-only” performance highlighted by classic hits like “I Don’t Want To Go Home,” solo favorites, songs written for other artists, and inventive covers of tracks made famous by Etta James, James Brown, and The Electric Flag. 

Steven Van Zandt—who remains a touring and recording member of The E Street Band—expanded his parameters, as an actor on The Sopranos andLilyhammer, as host, historian, and rock ‘n’ roll advocate on Sirius XM’s one-and-only “Little Steven’s Underground Garage” (not to mention creator of Sirius XM’s long-running “Outlaw Country” format). Van Zandt kept his skills sharp by composing the score for all three seasons of Lilyhammer and continued to work as producer and songwriter, lending his distinctive craft to records from an array of international garage rockers.

STATE THEATRE NEW JERSEY is located at 15 Livingston Avenue in New Brunswick, New Jersey.
