FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
January 15, 2008Columbia Records Premieres “Girls In Their Summer Clothes” Music Video Exclusively On The iTunes Store Today
European Dates Added To 2008 Tour Schedule Following Raves And Sell-Outs For ’07 Dates
‘Magic’ Album (Columbia) Garners Many Top Year-End Honors
Bruce Springsteen has hit the ground running in 2008. Springsteen’s new video will see release on the iTunes Store, new tour dates have been announced and ‘Magic’ is one of the top albums of 2007.
Today, Columbia Records released a “Girls In Their Summer Clothes” bundle exclusively through the iTunes Store. The release marks the premiere of the “Girls In Their Summer Clothes” video and also includes a “Winter Mix” of the song; and a live rendition. Directed by Mark Pellington (“Lonesome Day,” Pearl Jam’s “Jeremy”), the video was shot in Ocean Grove and Asbury Park, NJ.
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band have announced an extensive tour schedule for 2008. Their 2007 tour was met with rapturous critical response and rapid sell-outs. The Washington Post proclaimed, “Springsteen and his longtime band were simply great, performing a well-considered set with heightened intensity and a very clear sense of purpose… Springsteen remains one of the most potent live performers in popular music — largely because he’s among the most committed practitioners of the form, draining all of his creative energy every time he’s onstage.”
‘Magic’ has received notice on over forty critics’ year-end best lists, including Rolling Stone, Blender, Spin, and USA Today, and was named Entertainment Weekly’s top album of 2007.
