Bruce Springsteen has confirmed that the nephew of his late sax player Clarence Clemons will join the band for the upcoming world tour. Clemons passed away last June after a stroke and a post on facebook.com/brucespringsteen confirmed that Clemons' nephew Jake will share saxophone duties with long-time band member Eddie Manion.
The post read: " The expanded line up for this Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band tour features singers Cindy Mizelle and Curtis King, trombonist Clark Gayton and trumpeter Curt Ramm, all of whom have toured with Bruce Springsteen in the past along with newcomer Barry Danielian on trumpet. E Street stalwart Eddie Manion and first time tour member Jake Clemons, will share the saxophone role."
Bruce Springsteen will play The RDS on 17th and 18th July.
