American singer-songwriter and guitarist Raul Midon will come to Korea in March for his third concert in the country, according to the concert’s supervisor Southern Star Entertainment. Southern Star announced through a press release that the concert titled “Raul Midon Live in Seoul: The Miracle of Music Vol.4” will take place at Seoul's Art Center MAC on March 19. Midon who skillfully moves between various genres of music -- from folk music to jazz to pop to R&B and more -- has often been compared to genius musician Stevie Wonder, for also overcoming his own blindness to produce much acclaimed music. The 43-year-old musician who became blind as an infant, found his first passion in music through drumming at age four and since then studied the guitar and jazz throughout his youth while working as the chorus for renowned world pop stars such as Shakira, Ricky Martin, Julio Iglesias and Christina Aguilera. He made an official debut with his first single “State of Mind” in 2005 which is also his most well-known album in Korea that included songs “Expressions of Love” in which Stevie Wonder played the harmonica and “Keep On Hoping” whose featuring was done by Jason Mraz.He went on to release his second and third album “A World Within A World,” and “Synthesis,” in 2007 and 2009, respectively, as well as other compilation albums. ※ Any copying, republication or redistribution of 10Asia's content is expressly prohibited without prior consent of 10Asia.
