Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band live performance of Cadillac Ranch in Austin
On February 16, 2023, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band took the stage at the Moody Center in Austin, marking a special moment in their ongoing 2023 World Tour. Before this electrifying performance of "Cadillac Ranch," the band had recently released the album "Letter to You" in 2020, which was a heartfelt return to rock roots that captured both nostalgia and a sense of urgency. This live rendition in Austin was notable not only for being the first performance of this lively track on the tour but also for Springsteen's deep connection with Texas, where he often draws inspiration for his storytelling. It’s fascinating to think about how a song written decades ago can still resonate with audiences today, reflecting on themes of Americana and the journeys we take, all wrapped up in the infectious energy of a live concert.
