Mitch Stein
The show had already started and the sound came rushing up the stairs to meet me as I made my way to the basement of the Izzy Bar that night in '97. The sound, like Led Zeppelin on overdrive wearing a Stetson and armed with 21st Century calculus, made my hair stand on end. I'd been told by those who know that The Hermanators were probably the best band in the city and that their leader, Mitch Stein, was a New York guitar legend. Sure enough the room was packed, full of some of the finest improvising musicians anywhere, devoted fans and even a contingent of the "beautiful people."

The Hermanators: But What About Me?
by Mike Jacobs
Guitarist Mitch Stein, bassist Kip Reed and drummer Rodney Holmes had a great thing going with their trio, The Hermanators. Despite making a studio album--Twisted--and something of a splash in the '90s NYC club scene, it remains almost criminal that this group didn't take off. Thankfully, the talent of the trio's members didn't go unnoticed, leading ...
Roseanna Vitro: Tell Me The Truth
by C. Michael Bailey

But, this is not just any thoughtlessly-assembled concept recording. Vitro is the master of intelligently programmed and produced thematic albums as evidenced by: Catching Some Rays: The Music of Ray Charles (Telarc, 1997); The ...
