The high-energy tribute band, “Bruce In The USA,” will appear at Ocean City’s Music Pier on Saturday, June 29, at 7 p.m. The concert promises a note-perfect and visually accurate recreation of a Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band show.
The event is sponsored by Ocean City American Legion Post 524, and proceeds benefit veterans and their families.
Titled “The World’s Greatest Tribute to Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band” by AXS TV, the Bruce In The USA Band consists of seasoned, world class, professional musicians.
Matt Ryan, from the famous “Legends In Concert” cast, began playing the Springsteen character in 2000. His success in the Las Vegas show brought him to performances across the world, eventually evolving his character into the Bruce In The USA show.
Proceeds of the "Bruce In the USA" concert will go to veterans and their families of American Legion Post 524.
