Explore the complete world of Bruce Hornsby with the new Bruce Hornsby wiki on Bruuuce.com!
Ten years after launching the original, we’ve given it a redesign and the biggest addition to this website in years: the revamped Bruce Hornsby wiki!
It’s not just a d
Dive deep into lyric analysis for every single song from Bruce’s studio albums, along with insights into some unreleased material. Uncover detailed profiles on every musician who’s shared a studio with Bruce, and take a comprehensive look at the instruments they’ve brought to life.
In-depth lyric analysis
For over twenty years, you’ve given us detailed explorations of every song from 24 of Bruce’s records, breaking down the layers of meaning in his lyrics and exploring the themes, stories, and characters he brings to life. Whether it’s Bruce’s reflections on social issues, local accounts or tales from his own life, you’ve examined over 170 songs and captured the nuances that make the songwriting so compelling. Even unreleased tracks find a home in the wiki (Set Me in Motion, anybody? Life in the Psychotropics?), with insights into rare gems that may only appear live or in guest appearances, giving you a unique glimpse into the creative process.
Besides your own ideas, we’ve pulled from interviews with Bruce Hornsby and John Hornsby – now you can finally learn the meaning of The Show Goes On (spoiler alert – it’s not about death!). We’ve gone right up to the recent Lost and Found on the Spirit Trail and Deep Sea Vents – and the unsettling meaning behind Circus on the Moon. It’s a living document – we’ll regularly look for your own takes on the Bruuuce.COMmunity on Facebook, and you can e-mail us your thoughts to us at any time to add to our pages!
Profiles on every musician and instrument
Over 160 musicians who have worked with Bruce are profiled here. Discover the individuals behind the sounds, with a biography for all the familiar faces in his band to one-off collaborations, from John Anderson to Z-Berg. You’ll also find details on almost 100 different instruments that have shaped Bruce’s music – if Ethan Gruska was on “sprankles“, you’ll know all about it!
Fan reactions and favourite song votes
In true community spirit, the Bruce Hornsby wiki also captures the voices of fans through time. You’ll find a rich collection of your own reactions, complete with polls and rankings where you’ve voted on your favourite tracks from each album. And we’re going to keep asking, and adding to these pages – please always feel free to e-mail us your thoughts so that we can publish them.
“Day one takes” and press reviews
Relive the release days with our “day one takes” – snapshots of your first impressions gathered on the day a new album hit the shelves. These initial reactions bring an authentic, in-the-moment energy to the wiki, capturing the buzz and discoveries from you all as you heard the songs for the first time. We’ve also compiled press reviews to provide a broader context, reflecting on how critics received each release and how those opinions have stood the test of time.
