Barry Zito – a Music interest event taking place on 2018-08-08 20:00:00 in United States
Barry Zito knows a thing or two about life and its curveballs. He also knows just about everything about throwing the perfect curveball in baseball. A master on the mound in the major leagues for years, Zito had a virtually unstoppable curve that often proved unbeatable and earned him the coveted Cy Young Award right out of the gate at age twenty-four. A studied and disciplined scholar at whatever art hes attempting to master, the world class athlete is now throwing that heat in a new direction his music. And with the release of his debut EP, NO SECRETS, hes ready to reveal an entirely new side of himself to the world one that might surprise people who know him only for his pitching prowess and roller coaster career. Zito has actually been playing guitar since his early 20s, while on the road in the minor leagues, and he began dabbling in songwriting for fun a few years later. Born with a natural athletic ability, hes also always possessed a love and talent for music that he comes by quite naturally. Zito grew up in a household surrounded by music. His father Joe worked as a conductor/arranger for Nat King Cole and eventually an artist manager, and his mother Roberta had been one of Coles backup singers in the Merry Young Souls. Barry recalls having a fascination with music pretty early on. After retiring from his baseball career in 2015, Zito immediately turned his full attention to that second love and began crafting the songs that would fill his first album. You could almost say it was fate or kismet that brought the World Series winner full circle to a Triple A team in Music City right before he retired, and for Zito, it was definitely a long, winding journey full of interesting twists and turns that landed him there and ultimately inspired the songs on NO SECRETS…
