Bruce Springsteen To Release Autobiography 'Born To Run' In September

Written by Laura Johnson
Bruce Springsteen will release his autobiography, 'Born To Run', in September.
The book is set to arrive worldwide on September 27 via Simon & Schuster. The Boss announced the news in a statement on his website, part of which you can check out below.
"Springsteen has been privately writing the autobiography over the past seven years. He began work in 2009, after performing with the E Street Band at the Super Bowl’s halftime show.
In Born to Run, Mr. Springsteen describes growing up in Freehold, New Jersey amid the “poetry, danger, and darkness” that fueled his imagination. He vividly recounts his relentless drive to become a musician, his early days as a bar band king in Asbury Park, and the rise of the E Street Band. With disarming candor, he also tells for the first time the story of the personal struggles that inspired his best work, and shows us why the song “Born to Run” reveals more than we previously realized.
“Writing about yourself is a funny business,” Mr. Springsteen notes in his book. “But in a project like this, the writer has made one promise, to show the reader his mind. In these pages, I’ve tried to do this.”
Springsteen recently announced that he will be bringing The River tour to Ireland in May. The tour supports the recent release of ‘The Ties That Bind: The River Collection’, a huge box set, which came out in December to celebrate the 35th anniversary of ‘The River’, Springsteen’s fifth album.
