Experience the Boss's legendary music like never before when renowned actor Hank Azaria rocks the stage with his EZ Street Band.
Best known as the voice of Simpsons icons like Moe Szyslak and Chief Wiggum and his Critics' Choice-nominated role in BROCKMIRE, Azaria brings his immense talent and Jersey spirit to The Boss's timeless anthems. What started out as a fun idea to surprise people by singing Bruce Springsteen songs at his 60th birthday became a labor of love for Azaria, a life-long Springsteen fan.
“I’ve never worked harder preparing for any role than I did in perfecting a singing vocal impression of Bruce,” he said.
The tribute performance is a joyful, full-tilt rock ’n roll event, and Azaria’s physicality and flair are a true homage to Bruce. Azaria channels many familiar components of Bruce Springsteen’s iconography: intimate, irreverent storytelling, connection to family, preternatural stamina, camaraderie with the band, and a palpable love for performing.
All net proceeds will benefit The Four Through Nine Foundation, which was founded by Azaria and is committed to social justice, education and recovery causes — “I can't think of a better way to spend my time and use my passion for voices than playing these songs for a crowd that loves them and to lovingly pay tribute to Bruce, while raising money for folks who need it.”
Members of the EZ Street Band have worked and performed with artists such as Ariana Grande, Post Malone, Lil Nas X, St. Lucia, Josh Groban, blackbear, Cynthia Erivo and more, and have opened for Modest Mouse, Carly Rae Jepsen, Lake Street Dive, Charlie Puth, Tove Lo, and They Might Be Giants. They have performed on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Good Morning America, and NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts, as well as notable concerts at Coachella, Bonnaroo, Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, Radio City Music Hall, and in the band for Broadway’s Tony-Award-winning Dear Evan Hanson.
