Bruce Springsteen

In the vibrant context of 2006, when Bruce Springsteen performed 'This Little Light of Mine' with the Sessions Band in Dublin, he was riding high on the wave of his album 'We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions.' This unique album, released just a couple of months before the live recording, showcased his interpretations of traditional folk and protest songs, paying tribute to the legendary Pete Seeger. The live performance was a real testament to Springsteen's versatility and his ability to connect deeply with his audience, infusing each song with an infectious energy. Interestingly, 'This Little Light of Mine' embodies themes of hope and resilience, aligning perfectly with Springsteen's ongoing exploration of the American spirit. This period also marked a fresh creative direction for him, blending rock with roots, and it was particularly special for fans craving a more communal and participatory concert atmosphere.
