Synopsis

Product Description
Mike Zito's passion for music has long been fueled by his love of guitar and the icons who helped propel the instrument to its legendary status. 2008 saw the release of Zito's national debut Today on Eclecto Groove Records which spent a total of six weeks on the Billboard Blues charts and received multiple spins daily on Sirius/XM Radio. Now Zito returns with his follow up effort Pearl River, produced once again by David Z (Prince, Buddy Guy, Etta James, Jonny Lang) and joined by special guests Reese Wynans (Double Trouble), Cyril Neville, Anders Osborne and Susan Cowsill. The result is a rollicking slice of Americana served up with heaping slabs of greasy New Orleans funk, gritty blues and good old fashioned rock 'n' roll.

CD Reviews

Don't hestitate-BUY THIS ONE!
Jerry D | Quincy IL | 09/23/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I recently recieved "Pearl River" from Mike Zito's Label (I'm blessed to be a Blues DJ w/a couple shows), and thought-cool...I liked his last disc-"Today", so I put it up on the priority list to give a listen. If you liked his last disc-you'll love this one-great variety of stuff-there's some rockin' stuff, some a little greasy,and of course-some soulful stuff as well. This disc is a continuance of his maturity as a player, singer and songwriter, it's pretty impressinve to put out such good cd's two years running. If you're not instantly hooked on this disc with one listening-give it another spin--this one will grow on you! I'll put this one on the short list (with Curtis Salgado's-"Clean Getaway") of some my favorite 09' releases."

"George Carlin had a comedy piece based on white guys singing the blues implying that they had not been through enough hard times to be legitimate. Listening to Mike Zito dispels that myth in short order. He is a man in recovery whose life has been in the throws of death and he has emerged as an outstanding performer. He has the emotional depth and ability to express it that causes him to stand out as a welcome addition to other white men who played the blues such as SRV, Clapton, Duane Alman and others. I heard him last night at Treasure Lake Ski Lodge less than a week after Ana Popovic graced their stage and I can say his performance was just as inspiring!"
