New Single Coming Soon!
I WANNA BE A LIGHT
Raul Midón announces the release of his upcoming single,
“I Wanna Be A Light,” a dynamic and emotionally charged song that speaks directly to these uncertain times. Fusing rock energy with jazz sophistication and soulful grit, the track is built on electric guitar, bass, drums, and raw, expressive vocals.
Lyrically, “I Wanna Be A Light” confronts fear, shadow, and division—while ultimately choosing hope, responsibility, and humanity. It’s a declaration of intent: to stand firm, to uplift, and to be a source of light even when the world feels heavy.
With this release, Midón continues his tradition of fearless songwriting and genre-blending artistry, offering music that challenges, heals, and inspires.
