Hank Azaria & The EZ Street Band is a labor of love for Azaria, a life-long Springsteen fan. The acclaimed actor and voice artist is best known for his decades of work on The Simpsons. Now he’s using his voice in a new and different way.
Azaria spent months creating an impression of Springsteen's distinctive speaking cadence and singing ‘voice’ to conceive the tribute show. The tribute performance itself 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 Springsteen’s iconography: intimate, irreverent storytelling, connection to family, preternatural stamina, camaraderie with the band, and a palpable love for performing.
