The Sound and Music of Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere
Go behind the scenes of “Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere”, the new film from Director Scott Cooper. We are joined today by production sound mixer Tod Maitland, composer Jeremiah Frates, Re-recording Mixer and Supervising Sound Editor David Giammarco, and Supervising Sound Editor Eric Norris.
We discuss shaping the film’s sonic identity — from capturing live vocals on set, recreating Springsteen’s iconic studio environments, and blending Jeremy Allen White’s performances with Bruce’s original recordings, to using silence, heartbeat motifs, and era-specific gear like the Echoplex and the TEAC 114 tape recorder.
Hear firsthand stories about filming at The Stone Pony, recording in the legendary Power Station, navigating the emotional father–son finale, and exploring Springsteen’s creative process through sound.
