About Danny
Danny Federici (born January 23, 1950) was an icon in American music. He was most known for being the organ, glockenspiel, and accordion player for Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band for the past 38 years.
Federici started to play accordion when he was seven years old, which he learned from watching The Lawrence Welk Show.

His use of the electronic glockenspiel is also an easily recognized E Street element. Another notable performance is his accordion solo on "4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)."
