E Street Band<\/strong> guitarist Stevie Van Zandt<\/strong> is the subject of the new documentary\u00a0<\/span>Stevie Van Zandt: Disciple, <\/span><\/em>premiering<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/em>June 22 on HBO and streaming on Max.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, the film delves into\u00a0his work\u00a0with\u00a0Bruce Springsteen<\/strong>, and Van Zandt tells ABC Audio that director Bill Teck<\/strong> gives fans\u00a0some new insight into the beginnings of their\u00a0lifelong friendship and partnership.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBill really tells the story of those early Asbury days in a little bit more detailed way than most people even know,\u201d Stevie shares. \u201cAnd I think that’s going to be exciting for the fans before we even get into my other lives.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The film features interviews with Van Zandt\u2019s fellow musicians, including Springsteen, Eddie Vedder <\/strong>and\u00a0Jackson<\/strong> Browne<\/strong>, and Teck says they were all eager to participate.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPeople had been waiting, like, their whole lives to talk about Stevie,\u201d he says. \u201cLike you could tell that people knew, you know, how much of a story there was. …\u00a0They wanted to be part of telling it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The film also delves into Van Zandt’s career as an activist, music historian and more,\u00a0some things\u00a0people may not be aware of, and\u00a0Van Zandt says he hopes the doc\u00a0helps bring his work \u201cto a larger audience.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the nice thing about film, you know, it can find a way to tell the story and all these things you don’t have to categorize necessarily,\u201d he says.<\/span><\/p>\n

And while fans will certainly learn a lot about Stevie watching the doc, they won\u2019t be the ones getting an education.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope it explains my life to me,\u201d Van Zandt jokes. \u201cBecause it doesn’t make any sense, really. You know, I was just following things according to my instinct and wherever it went.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
