Episode 64: Jake Clemons on Clarence, the Beatles and protest songs
Description
Born in February 1980, Jake has been a member of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band since 2012, when he was tapped to play saxophone in place of his late uncle, the renowned Big Man himself, Clarence Clemons. Jake has toured extensively with Springsteen and the E Street Band, handling saxophone, percussion, and backing vocal duties on the Wrecking Ball World Tour, the High Hopes Tour, The River Tour, 2017's Australia and New Zealand Summer Tour, and the recently completed 2023-2025 tour. He has also mounted tours with the Jake Clemons Band, which has crisscrossed the globe, including stints in North America, Europe, and Australia.
In 2017, Jake released his debut solo album entitled "Fear & Love." Critics lauded the LP's honest
storytelling and powerful emotional resonance. Jake will be performing at the inaugural Everything Fab Four Fest, November 6-8, 2025, at the Berkeley Oceanfront Hotel in Asbury Park, New Jersey, where we'll be celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Beatles' "Rubber Soul" album.
