The Pace Report: "The Bad Ass and Ever Talented, Raul Midón!" The Raul Midón Interview

Congratulations to vocalist and guitarist Raul Midón for being nominated for critically-acclaimed Mack Avenue Records release, "Bad Ass and Blind." Raul Midón has been nominated for Best Jazz Vocal, Male.

Also, I'd like to thank publicist Fiona Bloom for her hard work and dedication to working hard on this project and arranging my interview with Raul this past March(hope I can do a big segment on Petula Clark in December!), the guys at DL Media(Maureen McFadden and Matthew Jurasek) who handle all of Mack Avenue Records artists(I'll post my other Mack Avenue nominees this week as well), and Raul who was a prince of a guy for this interview.

Here's the link to my interview with Raul from March of this year for the official record release performances of "Bad Ass and Blind" shot at the Highline Ballroom and Sam Ash in NYC.

Make sure you go and buy Raul's Grammy-nominated CD.

The Pace Report: "The Bad Ass and Ever Talented, Raul Midón!" The Raul Midón Interview

Guitarist, percussionist, vocalist and songwriter Raul Midón has brought a strong and authentic voice to contemporary music by way of jazz, world music, and R & B. His ninth release, 'Bad Ass and Blind,' on Artistry Music proves that honesty and playing music outside the commercial confines of the record industry can reap success on another level. Raul's new CD showcases his deep scope of his musical range and his mastering of producing and conceiving his ideas to fans all over the world.

Throughout his career he's been a session musician who's toured and recorded with the likes of Jose Feliciano, Shakira, Julio Iglesias, and DJ Louie Vega. While living in Miami he decided to move to New York City where he decided to pursue his a career as a solo artist. The late Arif Mardin produced Raul's debut recording "State of Mind" which featured performances with Stevie Wonder and Jason Mraz.

Over the last decade his music has been featured in Spike Lee's film, She Hate Me, and the film The Peaceful Warrior. He's also collaborated with the likes of Herbie Hancock, Larry Kline, Richard Bona, Bill Withers, and Marcus Miller.

I sat down with Raul while he was in New York recently for his official kick-off of his world tour as well as seminar he held at Guitar Center at Times Square.
