SUMMARY:Raul Midón
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nBlind Singer-Songwriter 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.” A master at combining genres\, “his music suggests a three way fusion of Stevie Wonder\, Bobby McFerrin and José Feliciano\,” New York Times. Midón recently debuted the album’s first single\, the uplifting bluesy pop song Keep On Keeping On on the The Jennifer Hudson Show (December 2023). \n\nJoining him on this body of work are his friends\, industry veterans\, Andres Forero (Hamilton\, Phish\, U2) Drums & Percussion\, Richard Hammond (Hamilton) bass\, Federico Pena (Black Lives) keyboards & piano. The anthemic Next Time\, a “galloping rock waltz” is a co-write with New York fixture Mike Errico\, who plays on it as well. String arrangements were provided by Andrew Sherman. \n\nLost & Found\, the album’s moniker which Midón calls “smooth folk” or folk with harmonic surprises is a celebration of redemption. The lyrics were inspired by his listening to Bob Dylan’s reading of his poem\, Last Thoughts On Woody Guthrie. \n\nWhen We Remember is a country-tinged song that includes a stint of Raul playing banjo. He might have reached out to Bela Fleck but he’s held his own here and he does it from the comfort of his basement studio. To do this Midón has had to learn the art of engineering. The technology for the blind is not consistent and it’s a constant struggle\, one he continues to confront on a daily basis. He’s been assisted here by New York recording engineer\, Michael O’Reilly\, whom he met while making his major label debut State of Mind under the careful eye of legendary producer\, Arif Mardin. Raul has worked with “Mike” extensively on many albums since those early days including the Grammy Nominated Bad Ass and Blind. \n\nhttps://www.grunincenter.org/event/raul-midon/ \ngrunincenter@ocean.edu \n732-255-0500

SUMMARY:Sentimental Journey Big Band
DESCRIPTION:An Inspired Journey Through the Classics of Swing and the melodic gems of other styles that have been transformed by Jazz. \nJoin us for “It Might As Well Be Swing.” \nYou can count on Sentimental Journey Big Band to bring you the best of the Swing Era\, while vocalist Altha Morton sings the jazzed up versions of country\, pop\, and R&B hits. \nWhat makes this year’s program unique is a vibrant celebration of the enduring dialogue between classical music and jazz. From Bizet to Verdi\, and Paganini to Rimsky- Korsakov\, composers have long inspired jazz artists with their timeless themes and harmonic structures. \nThis performance explores how classical compositions are transformed through jazz arrangements—whether in the smooth sophistication of a big band\, the daring freedom of improvisation\, or the rhythmic vitality of swing. Artists like Glenn Miller\, Les Brown\, the Dorsey brothers\, and Benny Goodman took these compositions to the top of the charts! \nWhether you’re a lover of pop\, classical\, or swing\, this program promises a foot-tapping\, soul-stirring ride through music that refuses to stay in one lane. \nhttps://www.grunincenter.org/event/sentimental-journey-big-band-2/ \ngrunincenter@ocean.edu \n732-255-0500
