Bluesfest: Royal Southern Brotherhood

Back to Bluesfest, where there was a family get-together on the Black Sheep Stage. The two families in question are he Allmans and the Nevilles, and the band is the appropriately named Royal Southern Brotherhood. However, we're starting things off outside the family, with the considerable talents of the three members who don't have a slew of famous musical brethren.

Mike Zito handles the guitar, Charlie Wooten plays bass and drummer extraordinaire Yonrico Scott.

And that's that; you can check out my Flickr account for many more Zito photos, and if you're in Florida or thereabouts you can check out his own band since he's on a bit of a mini-tour in the region.
