Growing up in St. Louis, Missouri, Zito was immersed in the gritty sounds of the south side that would unknowingly become the groundwork of his future in music. Like the legends before him, music has coursed through his veins from the early age of five, when he began singing and performing.

It didn’t take long for him to discover his instrument of choice – electric guitar – after receiving a Van Halen record for his birthday. His education and journey were just starting – little did he know he would find himself among such legends at a local guitar shop just out of high school. “Everyone from Chuck Berry to Bennie Smith came in that store,” Zito shares of his experience. “I soaked up the sounds of that store and began building my own style.”

Going To Soulsville with Jeff Kazee

An Interview with Jeff Kazee
by Michelle Paponetti

In 1998, Jeff Kazee’s newly found role as the Asbury Jukes keyboardist won the acceptance and praise of many a Juke fan. But Kazee’s career was well past getting started. Born in Newark, Ohio, Jeff got his start as a musician at a young age and has been working hard ever since, playing the key role as the Asbury Jukes soul-influenced keyboardist as well as writing his own music for his band Kazee. Now that Jeff Kazee has become a staple in the Asbury Jukes live sound, he has  worked his way up to becoming a key figure in the studio sounds as well.

Kazee spent a lot of time with Southside Johnny in the past few months, collaborating on solutions to some of the new material, as well as having a hand in writing songs on the new album, “Going To Jukesville.” At the young age of 34, he has proved himself to be not only a strong musician, but a man with a great sense of songwriting ability and an understanding of life.

I met up with Jeff in a Japanese restaurant just outside of Westbury, Long Island to discuss his thoughts on a few different things and here is what he had to say.

It’s pretty evident that you have a well rounded education in music with a wide range of musical influences. Do you remember how any of that began?
Yeah, I came from a family of musicians. I grew up playing piano in church and all the influences started early. My dad was a choir director and my mom made me take classical piano lessons. From age ten. My brother’s a fantastic pianist. He owns a recording studio. He’s eight years older than me. And I probably should have started piano earlier but I was so intimidated because he was really good from an early age and much more dedicated because I was much more into sports. And my dad was really into country music so we listened to country music radio a lot. And that formed the basis of what I do. Then I became a radio freak, all day, all night. Believe it or not we had hardly any black music around the house-zero-and you know I’m a huge R + B/Soul fan. I really identify a lot with soul music, R&B, but the only black music I’d heard was Ray Charles and the only reason was because he had a record called “Ray Charles Modern Sounds in Country Western Music.” And of course when I got older, like in my teens, I started listening to classic R&B, because I found it on oldies radio stations. There was this great station called WLW, and there was this DJ named Jim Labarbera “the Music Professor” and he would tell the history behind certain songs and that appealed to me. Then I got into a band in high school. Almost every type of music has always resonated with me. I’m just musically curious-it’s my curse.
