Blood Brothers ft. Mike Zito & Albert Castiglia
Gulf Coast Records’ Blues Music Award-Winners Mike Zito and
Albert Castiglia bond as Blood Brothers on new Album coming
early 2023. Blood Brothers was 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 together 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!“
