Stevie Van Zandt takes center stage in this feature documentary, tracing Van Zandt’s career as a musician, producer, activist, actor, and more, from the clubs of Asbury Park, NJ, to stages around the world, to the Bada Bing Club and the Underground Garage. A high-octane ride filled with luminaries from the music, film, and political circles that Van Zandt toggles between, this revealing film chronicles the many lives of Van Zandt, who reinvented himself time and time again. From producing music with Bruce Springsteen and playing guitar in the E Street Band, to his role as Silvio Dante on HBO’s The Sopranos, to the passionate activism that helped bring global attention to the Apartheid regime in South Africa, Van Zandt has always been at the center of pop culture history.
Featuring original interviews with Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Bono, Eddie Vedder, Peter Gabriel, Jackson Browne, Joan Jett, Chris Columbus, Southside Johnny Lyon, Dion DiMucci, Gary U.S. Bonds, Darlene Love, Maureen Van Zandt, Jay Cocks, Vincent Pastore, Scott Kempner, Willie Nile, Kenny Laguna, Mike Stoller, Jeff Barry and many more!
