Harris campaign announces concert series with Bruce Springsteen to mobilize voters ahead of Election Day

The official said Springsteen will headline the kick-off concerts, with the first on Thursday in Atlanta. Former President Barack Obama will join Vice President Kamala Harris for the event. 

The official said Springsteen will headline another concert on Monday in Philadelphia, another event Obama will attend. 

The concert series will hit all seven battleground states: Georgia, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina and Wisconsin. The official said the campaign will announce additional concerts in the coming days. 

A senior campaign official said campaign advisers see the events as opportunities to attract voters and ensure the attendees turn out to vote.

Springsteen announced his support for Harris earlier this month, saying she and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, have "a vision this country respects and includes everyone, regardless of class, religion, race, your political point of view or sexual identity, and they want to grow our economy in a way that benefits all." 

Springsteen slammed former President Donald Trump, saying he "doesn't understand the meaning" of being "deeply American." 

Meanwhile, Trump will hold a massive rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City on Sunday.
