Description
Gulf Coast Records' Blues Music Award-Winners Mike Zito and Albert Castiglia bond as ' Blood Brothers' produced by Joe Bonamassa and Josh Smith and recorded at Dockside Studio in Maurice, Louisiana.
Mike Zito and Albert Castiglia are true "Blood Brothers" in life and in the music they create both individually and collectively, joining forces in a collaborative effort of songwriting and performances to create a total listening experience greater than the sum of its parts. Added to that process are the talents of producers Joe Bonamassa and Josh Smith, who brought fresh ideas to the recording sessions, pushing Mike and Albert creatively and musically to present their best work to date.
"Mike and Albert have a special chemistry together when they plug in and play that few have. They finish each other's sentences musically," award-winning guitarist Joe Bonamassa said about the sessions. "Great tunes, great people, great hang! What's not to like? It was an honor to be involved in this project."
"Mike Zito and Albert Castiglia have done something special," added co-producer Josh Smith. "They have both found their musical confidante. Most solo artists never even look - let alone find - theirs. They have brought ogether a real 'band' using members of each's solo acts. The sum of all these parts added with a tremendous effort to both write and perform the strongest record of their respective careers has paid off in a special album. Blood Brothers indeed! Joe and I are proud that these brothers trusted our partnership to produce this special album!"
