Blind singer, songwriter, and guitarist Raul Midón is nothing if not prolific. His 14th and latest album, Lost & Found, is a blend of what he calls smooth folk, alt-pop, and jazz or "folk with harmonic surprises." It is a celebration of redemption with lyrics inspired by Bob Dylan’s poem "Last Thoughts On Woody Guthrie." A master at combining genres, “his music suggests a three way fusion of Stevie Wonder, Bobby McFerrin, and José Feliciano” (New York Times). Midón debuted the album’s first single, the uplifting bluesy pop song "Keep On Keeping On" on the The Jennifer Hudson Show in December 2023.
