(RED BANK, NJ) -- The Bruce Springsteen Archives and Center for American Music at Monmouth University, in collaboration with the Basie Center, will host “An Evening with David Sancious” at The Vogel on Friday, January 6, 2023. Also appearing with Sancious will be Living Colour drummer and multi-GRAMMY winner Will Calhoun. Showtime is 8:00pm.
“We are proud to present David Sancious in concert, marking the Springsteen Archives and Center for American Music’s first public program of 2023,” said Archives Director Eileen Chapman. “David’s contributions to the E Street Band in the early ‘70s are well-known, and his recordings as a solo artist are highly regarded.”
Sancious was an original member of the E Street Band, having participated in the recording of Springsteen’s first two albums, Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J and The Wild, the Innocent and the E Street Shuffle. His richly original, jazz inspired keyboard work helped define Springsteen’s early sound.
“I’m really happy to return to the Jersey Shore,” said Sancious. “Playing under the banner of the Bruce Springsteen Archives and Center for American Music makes the show even more rewarding for me.”
Peter Gabriel, Sting, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Seal and others, have used Sancious’ talents as pianist, synthesist, guitarist, arranger, and producer on recording sessions and concert tours, playing an eclectic and diverse range of music.
