Part of our mission is to hire musicians, to pay them well, including regularly paying for their accommodations.

The Southeast Iowa Blues Society is happy to announce that Mike Zito’s Band is coming to the FACC conventional hall in Fairfield Iowa the evening of September 20th. Opening for Mike Zito will be the talented Cedar County Cobras 
AT 7PM.
This great evening of the Blues brought to you by the Southeast Iowa Blues Society will be $20, and if you are a SIBS member you will get the reduced price of $15, what a deal!!!
Mike Zito is one of the most lauded artists in the contemporary blues arena today and rightfully so, but for him, the thing that counts the most is maintaining his honesty, authenticity and integrity. Those are the qualities that have steered Zito’s career since the beginning and continue to define every effort he’s offered since.
“I have nothing to hide; it seems my honesty is what people relate to most,” he once told Vintage Guitar magazine. “Anders (Osborne) told me early on, ‘If you don’t believe what you’re singing, you’ll never be a good singer.’ I try not to write fluff; I try to make every word count.”
n 2022, Zito released the double live album Blues for the Southside. Recorded on November 26, 2021, at the Old Rock House in St. Louis, Missouri, and produced by Mike Zito, Blues for the Southside showcases Zito (guitar, vocals) and his stellar band in full fury with special guests Tony Campanella, Dave Kalz and guitar wizard Eric Gales. After the release of Blues for the Southside, Zito joined forces with Gulf Coast Records label mate Albert Castiglia and created the Blood Brothers tour.
During the evening we will also be having a silent guitar auction, provided by Greg Mallot of the Guitar Farm in New London Iowa. 
This guitar has had many signatures collected on it over the past few years and now it is time for it to find a home in your collection. We will have a list of the signatures on display with the guitar at the event, and one of the signatures is followed by the letters CGP, for those who know some of the history of Chet Atkins.
Mike is a rare talent not to be missed with the bonus of the Cedar County Cobras included! Mark your calendars and we look forward to seeing you there.
