BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN’S KEYBOARD PLAYER DIES

April 18, 2008
A longtime member of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band died Thursday. Danny Federici died Thursday at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. He was 58. The keyboard player’s stylish work helped define the band’s sound on hits from “Hungry Heart” through “The Rising.” Federici had battled melanoma for three years. He had taken a leave of absence in November during the band’s current tour. He returned to play portions of a show in Indianapolis in March.
