DREAMING OF ZITO: St. Louis guitarist Mark Zito rocks the house at Poor House Bistro

Ever since Stevie Ray Vaughan, blues rock has proved itself one of the most enduringly catchy sounds in the country. St. Louis guitarist Mike Zito has been a fixture on the blues circuit for over a decade, honing a slick, string-bendy Texan blues rock that’s earned him collaborations with the likes of Joe Bonamassa, Walter Trout and Eric Gales. After releasing the aptly titled LP Quarantine Blues in summer of 2020, which endeavored to strike a hopeful tone in a chaotic and scary time, Zito followed it up with Resurrection, a return to form of cool boogies and massive licks.
