Who knew The Head and The Heart are Springsteen fans?<\/p>\n

I didn’t, at least not until the band showed up for the premiere of\u00a0Blinded by the Light<\/em> at Sundance and performed a Springsteen tribute in Park City the night before.<\/p>\n

But fear not, THATH\/Springsteen fans: late last year, The Head and The Heart paid homage to Bruce once again, and this time their performance was not only captured on audio–it was streamed as part of a special 70th birthday tribute show.<\/p>\n

Here’s that performance: a lovely and aptly-chosen cover of Bruce’s “Hungry Heart<\/a>.”<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/estreetshuffle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/head-heart-hungry.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
