SUMMARY:Mike Zito @ Old Rockhouse
DESCRIPTION:From his childhood in St. Louis to the global blues-rock circuit\, Mike Zito has always kept it real. He began playing guitar at age five and by his late teens was a fixture on the St. Louis music scene. For Zito\, honesty\, authenticity\, and integrity aren’t just part of the brand\, they’re the foundation. “I have nothing to hide; it seems my honesty is what people relate to most\,” he once told Vintage Guitar. \nZito is a powerhouse in modern blues rock. He’s an artist whose gritty guitar work\, deeply human songwriting\, and magnetic stage presence have made him a defining force in the genre. From smoke-filled bars in East St. Louis to major festival stages around the world\, Mike has built a career on emotional honesty\, fearless playing\, and an unshakable commitment to the song. \nIn 2025\, Zito claimed the Blues Music Award for Blues Rock Album of the Year with Life Is Hard\, a deeply personal and sonically bold record that cements his place among the genre’s elite. The win followed his 2024 sweep\, where he was honored with Blues Rock Album of the Year and Blues Rock Artist of the Year\, reflecting both his creative output and his relentless touring schedule. \nA lifelong road warrior\, Zito has spent decades sharpening his craft onstage\, blending classic blues\, rock\, soul\, and Americana into something unmistakably his own. His live shows are equal parts fire and heart: searing guitar work\, powerhouse grooves\, and storytelling that invites audiences straight into his world. \nOffstage\, Zito is a respected producer and co-founder of Gulf Coast Records\, championing fellow artists and helping shape some of the most exciting new music in today’s blues landscape. \nExperience the raw power of Mike Zito\, a heavyweight of the modern Blues Rock scene. Fusing St. Louis rock and roll with soulful\, grit-soaked vocals\, the multi-Blues Music Award winner delivers a high-voltage set of world-class guitar work and deep-grooving Americana. \nAll ages show – $2 cash surcharge at the door for minors\,
