US Rocker Releases Album Featuring E Street Band Icons



NEW YORK, NY, November 11, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Sha-La Music announces the release of On E Street Remix-The Album by US Roots Rocker DownTown Mystic, featuring drummer "Mighty" Max Weinberg & bassist Garry Tallent, the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame rhythm section from Bruce Springsteen's legendary E Street Band. The album is the follow-up to the On E Street Remix EP, released back in April, and includes 6 new tracks. On E Street Remix-The Album will be distributed worldwide by The Orchard/Sony Music and released on Black Friday November 27 for the holidays.

On E Street Remix-The Album picks up where the On E Street Remix EP left off. The EP was a commercial and critical success thanks in part to the historical weight of the project's backstory. Recorded during the same period Weinberg and Tallent were shaping one of the most influential albums in rock history, Born In The USA, the On E Street Remix project offers another perspective of that rock history. The album includes 6 new mixes along with the EP's 6 tracks. Especially noteworthy is the unreleased Sometimes Wrong (1983) remastered by Leon Zervos (Pink, Crowded House) and the new acoustic remix of And You Know Why, as well as stripped-down versions of Hard Enough and Way To Know that showcase the brilliance of the 2 E Streeters like never before.

DownTown Mystic writer/producer Robert Allen's main goal was to give the tracks a fresh sound and revisit a pivotal moment in his career. Robert and Engineer Joe DeMaio remixed the tracks at Shorefire Studios, where they were originally recorded. Robert recalls, "The experience of playing with Max & Garry changed everything for me." The new mixes on the album were a chance to reveal something new in the songs. Robert comments, "My idea for the album was to show different aspects of the songs by stripping away layers of guitars to reveal the basic foundation that Max and Garry created." The result allows listeners to hear the E Streeters in a way no one has ever heard them before. Max & Garry recording together as the rhythm section for an artist other than Bruce Springsteen is a true rarity. Their performances on the album are even rarer.

2026 was another strong year for DownTown Mystic, starting with the Hard Enough single in January, followed by the On E Street Remix EP in April. The Mystic Highway Road Trip EP was released in July, with the current hit single Maybe Love's A Crime coming out in October. All the releases have received critical raves as well as worldwide radio play. On E Street Remix-The Album ends the year by bringing the On E Street Remix project full circle. As Robert has previously stated, "If you want to make a rock'n'roll statement then who better to do it with? I think E Street is probably the most famous street in rock'n'roll history." No arguments there. On E Street Remix-The Album is a rock'n'roll statement!

"By revisiting tracks recorded with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legends "Mighty" Max Weinberg and bassist Garry Tallent, DownTown Mystic has delivered a masterclass in vintage yet modern artistry, proving that true chemistry never ages; it only deepens with time." Apricot Magazine
