Tony Covino of In Theory
Tony Covino is one part of In Theory” an upcoming shape-shifting rock blues band, a collaborative group with two key players—Mike Mostert and Tony Covino. While Mike plays guitar and produces all the band’s songs, Tony is ‘the voice’ of In theory, The voice with somber despair and resounding rage, reminiscent of Soundgarden’s Chris Cornell. Mike and Tony were signed EMI artists in an earlier life and together have writer/singer/guitarist and producer credits on twenty different HBO, Showtime and NBC TV shows and movies. I caught up with Tony from his house in NY and we spoke about In Theory, The 2 new singles, The river and heroes, The legend of Muscle Shoals, Songwriting and a whole lot more.
