Release Notes:
--------
Mike Zito couldn't help but be great. It was either that, probably, or end up on
a wanted poster in the post office. There is something deep down in Zito's soul
that will not stop screaming, pushing him to take life to the limit and worry
about the tab later. Before he found music and really let it become the guiding
force in his world, the young man ran in all the wrong directions. Sometimes
people were chasing him, but just as often Mike Zito was running from himself.
Finally there was nowhere to run. It was time to literally face the music. And
what Zito found was that he had a sound buried inside, something that was trying
to get out and share itself with the world.
That's where the Greyhound bus enters the picture -- in a big way, because the
singing guitarist grabbed one out of town with a ticket to anywhere else. When
he got there, Zito started playing like his life depended on it, because it
actually did. He put his shoulders and heart into it with everything he had, and
worked his way up the mountain to where he stands today.
Greyhound, produced by Grammy-award winning guitarist/singer/songwriter Anders
Osborne, is the continuation of the songwriting process established by Zito on
his two previous critically acclaimed recordings on Eclecto Groove Records. His
music retains its bluesy Americana charm and big wide-open Texas sound as he
explores more personal and introspective themes inspired by that fateful bus
trip that helped determine his path in life.
There have been hundreds of shows, a few albums, and the same desire to make a
claim on eternity. That's where the music lives, and that's where Mike Zito is
destined to go. Thank God for that Greyhound. Mike Zito got there.
