Bruce Springsteen’s latest release is a brand new album, Only The Strong Survive, which is a collection of “15 soul music greats”.

He also added he took inspiration from fabulous music writers and from Levis Stubbs, David Ruffin, Diana Ross, Scott Walker, Jimmy Ruffin, and many more. 

Fender recently revealed that Springsteen is one of his biggest influences in the journey of music. Springsteen is one of the influential inventors of the heartland rock style of music. He is an extraordinary singer who achieved many awards including 20 Grammys, a special Tony award, an Oscar, and two Golden Globes.

Fender began his career by supporting many major artists including Willy Mason. He released his first single in 2017, “Play God”, and put out “Start Again” and “Friday Flighting.” He gained attention and got spotted for his work when he wrote and released “Dead Boys” which was featured in Fifa 19’s game soundtrack.
