Bruce Springsteen's Protest Song & Tour

0:00It's March 26th. From the studio to the stage, this is Music News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Bruce Springsteen is wrapping up his criticism of the current administration with a new protest song called, Streets of Minneapolis. He wrote and released it just days after immigration officers killed two U.S. citizens there in January. The 76-year-old rocker plans a politically charged U.S. tour soon, but first, he's performing an anti-ice east anthem at a big rally. That rally is the No Kings event in St. Paul on Saturday, March 28th. It features Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, actress Jane Fonda, folk singer Joan Baez and Maggie Rogers. Organizers expect more than 80,000 people, part of 3,000 protests nationwide against the administration.

With protests swelling across the U.S., Springsteen's voice adds fuel to a growing call for change in these strained days.
