Guitarist Mike Mostert and vocalist Tony Covino make up the songwriting and performing machine that is the band In Theory. In Theory, is often billed as “a Muscle Shoals-style Led Zeppelin and a swampy gritty version of Soundgarden.” I believe the band is all of that and so much more. With their latest single, “World’s On Fire,” they are showing even more of their hard rock side, but with slight hints of the soul and gospel renderings that fans know them for.
In this interview, Mike talks about “World’s On Fire,” the band’s current tour plans, and exciting news pertaining to the future of In Theory!

Hello everyone! My name is Scott Itter, but some know me as Dr. Music. I am a music journalist and photographer out of the Chicagoland area, and I have been in practice for over 20 years. I grew up in the 70’s with two big brothers that showed me all kinds of rock and roll. As I grew older I ventured out into different genres like jazz, funk, folk, and whatever else I could wrap my ears around. As I read every liner note and every Circus and Hit Parader like they were the Old and New Testament, I came to realize that I just love sound and appreciate all the people that create it.
I later became a stay-at-home dad and started honing my writing and photography skills to keep my mind from turning into mashed peas. My kids are now adults, my mind is only slightly mushy, and I am thrilled to have the honor of presenting my work to you!
