Bruce Springsteen appeared on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” in December 2020, and will do so again this month.

Bruce Springsteen, who releases his Only the Strong Survive album on Nov. 11, will participate in what is being called a “Takeover Week” on NBC television’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”

According to a press release:

Starting Monday, Nov. 14, Springsteen will appear as lead guest joining host Jimmy Fallon, and performs several times.

Appearing on the show Nov. 14-16, the Boss will debut four songs from his 21st studio album of soul music greats. His final performance will air during “The Tonight Show’s” special Thanksgiving episode on Thursday, Nov. 24.

Previous “Tonight Show” takeovers have featured artists such as Demi Lovato, Ariana Grande, BTS, Miley Cyrus and Cher.

HERE is a link to my review of Only the Strong Survive.

One imagines that Fallon will break out his Springsteen imitation at some point. Check it out here:
