The E Street Band is the band that has toured and recorded with rock musician Bruce Springsteen on and off since 1972.
They have also recorded, both as individuals and as a band, with a wide range of other artists including Bob Dylan, Meat Loaf, Bonnie Tyler, Air Supply, Dire Straits, David Bowie, Peter Gabriel, Sting, Ian Hunter, Ringo Starr, Ronnie Spector, Gary U.S. Bonds, Darlene Love, Southside Johnny, Santana, Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Tracy Chapman and Aretha Franklin.
When not working with Bruce Springsteen, members of the band have recorded solo material and have pursued successful careers as session musicians, record producers, songwriters, actors and other roles in entertainment. The most well-known in their separate careers are Max Weinberg, who has led The Max Weinberg 7 on Late Night with Conan O'Brien since 1993, and Steven Van Zandt, who starred as Silvio Dante in The Sopranos from 1999 to 2007.
In early 2007 E Street Band members separately travelled to Atlanta and recorded on Springsteen's album Magic, and concurrent with the album's release in October 2007, the Magic Tour began. However, after the conclusion of the tour's first leg on November 19, 2007, Danny Federici took a leave of absence from the tour, to pursue treatment for melanoma; he was replaced by Sessions Band member Charles Giordano.
Federici made his only return to the stage on March 20, 2008, when he appeared for portions of a Springsteen and E Street Band performance in Indianapolis. He passed away on April 17, 2008.
