Bruce Springsteen and his wife, fellow rock legend Patti Scialfa, were born in the U.S.A. — but more specifically, New Jersey! So, the talented husband and wife duo of course had to help out their home state for its special JERSEY 4 JERSEY benefit show that aired on April 22. To help the concert raise funds for the New Jersey Pandemic Relief Fund, which will provide grants to communities in need amid the coronavirus pandemic, Bruce and Patti set up a concert right from their home. The lovers strapped on their acoustic guitars to perform a duet of “Land of Hope and Dreams,” which Bruce and their band, The E Street Band, released in 2001 (yes — Bruce and Patti are bandmates).
