Bruce Springsteen’s 15th DJ show on SiriusXM satellite radio, debuting Nov. 25 at 10 a.m. on the network’s E Street Radio channel (channel 20), will be a post-Election Day special.
“Democracy has squeaked by, one more time,” Springsteen says in a SiriusXM ad promoting the show, which will be titled “We’re a Winner” and feature music by Chuck Berry, The Impressions, Leonard Cohen, MGMT, Oasis, The Stone Roses, The Byrds and others.
This show, part of The Boss’ “From My Home to Yours” series, will be the first in the series since the Nov. 3 presidential election, before which Springsteen made his support for Joe Biden well known.
You can read transcripts of what Springsteen has said on the previous 14 shows, and see YouTube videos of all the songs he has played, via these links:
APRIL 8 (a tribute to the late John Prine and more)
