A sad day today. I found out that while I was away, Danny Federici passed away following a three year battle with melanoma.
Danny Federici was the organist and keyboard player in the E Street Band, Bruce Springsteens powerhouse band, for almost 40 years. A founding member of the group, Federici bought a superb sound to Bruce’s music and there’s no way of counting the number of times I’ve sat and appreciated his music. The news truly saddened me when I heard and my feelings go out to the great man’s family and friends. As a fan I can only miss his music whereas they feel an even greater loss.
Please take a moment or two to read the touching eulogy Bruce himself wrote and read at Danny Federici’s funeral here.
