Singer, guitarist and songwriter Mike Zito grew up in St. Louis, immersed in the gritty and soulful sounds of the city's south side. These sounds provided the gourdwork for his future in music. "Today" showcases Zito's music in a distinctly contemporary setting. The producers captured the earthy essence and intimacy of his voice, along with the driving intensity of his overall delivery. Guitar god Walter Trout called Zito "one of the best I have ever heard."
