This is his remarkable story. Born 23rd September 1949 in New Jersey, Bruce showed an early interest in music after seeing Elvis Presley on The Ed Sullivan Show. Getting his first guitar from his Mum at the age of 13 and drawing on musical influences from traditional American popular music, folk, blues and country and of course rock and roll Bruce has since gone on to sell 120 million records worldwide, whilst winning 20 Grammy Awards, two Gold Globes (Best Song for The Wrestler ) and an Academy Award (Best Original Song Philadelphia).
