Mike Zito, the highly praised blues-rock guitarist, will be performing at Daryl’s House Club in Pawling, NY on Thursday, Dec. 12. This is just one stop on the ‘Rock N’ Roll World Tour’ that will continue through the winter in promotion of his new album Rock N Roll: A Tribute to Chuck Berry.
Released on Nov. 1 by Ruf Records, Zito’s Rock N Roll: A Tribute to Chuck Berry quickly rose to number one on the Billboard Blues Chart were it spent several weeks. Twenty-one guest guitarists are featured on the project in honor of the rock ‘n’ roll trailblazer. The album is produced by Mike Zito and was recorded at his Marz Studios. In addition to the album, Zito has also recently launched his own new label, Texas-based Gulf Coast Records.
“This was a very special project for me,” says Zito. “I lived in Chuck’s hometown of St. Louis for thirty-two years, and I worked at a small musical instrument store where his drummer also happened to be employed. Chuck’s son would drop by on occasion as well. He was an icon, and rightfully so. I’ve been playing his songs since I was a kid. Needless to say, he was a tremendous influence on my career, and, of course, on many other musicians’ as well.”
Show time is 8 p.m. with ticket prices ranging from $15 – $25. Tickets are available for purchase through Ticketweb. See all U.S. tour dates below.
