Bruce Springsteen has revealed Clarence Clemons‘ nephew Jake will take on saxophone duties in the E Street Band following the sad death of his Uncle last year.

Upon announcing his initial world tour dates last month, it appeared Springsteen might have decided to hit the road without a saxophone player after the passing of his inspirational bandmate, but now, in a post on The Boss’ official Facebook page, an expanded E Street line-up has confirmed the new saxophonist.

“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,” the statement reads. “E Street stalwart Eddie Manion and first time tour member Jake Clemons, will share the saxophone role.”

Bruce Springsteen will release his new album ‘Wrecking Ball‘ on March 5th.
