“There has never been a rock biopic quite like ‘Stevie Van Zandt: Disciple’ because there’s never been a human being quite like Stevie Van Zandt. A generously chronicled portrait of a rock and roll great.”

- Newsday

Stevie Van Zandt, known as New Jersey's most famous consigliere to Bruce Springsteen and Tony Soprano, takes center stage in this GRAMMY®-nominated feature documentary, STEVIE VAN ZANDT: DISCIPLE, which traces Van Zandt's career as a producer, musician, songwriter, activist, actor, and more, from the clubs of Asbury Park, N.J. to arena stadiums, to the Bada Bing Club and the Underground Garage.

A portrait of a true renaissance man and passionate activist, STEVIE VAN ZANDT: DISCIPLE chronicles the artist throughout his remarkable career while illuminating the influential and enduring legacy he continues to have as a fervent champion of rock ‘n’ roll and social justice.

“One of the best music documentaries to be

released in recent years.”

- Goldmine Magazine

The documentary features exclusive interviews with many of Van Zandt’s contemporaries, peers, collaborators, and friends, including Bruce Springsteen, Darlene Love, Eddie Vedder, Paul McCartney, and Bono.

The film tells the story of the galvanizing role he played in uniting 50 of the biggest names in music in 1985, across rock, hip hop, reggae, Latin, and soul genres, to create the history-altering “Sun City” track in protest of Apartheid South Africa. The documentary also highlights his acclaimed on-screen role as the legendary Silvio Dante in the Emmy®-winning HBO Original series “The Sopranos.”

Van Zandt continues to make a resounding impact, remaining at the forefront of artistic excellence and popular culture for over five decades.
