Jose Feliciano is recognized as the first Latin Artist to cross over into the English music market, opening the doors to others who now play an important part in the American music industry.

As importantly, Feliciano has been acclaimed by critics throughout the world as "The greatest living guitarist".

Jose was born blind, to humble beginnings on September 10, 1945, in Lares, Puerto Rico.
When he was five, his family immigrated to New York City. Young Jose learned to play the concertina at age six, At eight, he performed for his classmates at PS 57, and at nine, performed at The Puerto Rican Theater in the Bronx. Venturing beyond the accordion, he taught himself to play the guitar with undaunted determination and again, with nothing but records as his teacher, practicing for as many as 14 hours a day. Exposed to the rock-n-roll of the 50's, Jose was then inspired to sing.
Jose's first major break in the industry, however, happened in the Spanish market when, in 1966, after an amazing performance at the Mar del Plata Festival in Argentina, the RCA executives in Buenos Aires encouraged Jose to stay there and record an album of Spanish music.
By the time he was 23, Jose Feliciano had earned five Grammy nominations and won two Grammy Awards for his album "Feliciano!", he had performed over much of the world, and had recorded songs in four languages. But Jose was not satisfied. He had a desire to expand his career to include some acting and during the next few years, had made a number of dramatic TV appearances, including an episode of "Kung Fu", "Macmillan and Wife" and "Chico and the Man". "It was a lot of fun," recalls Jose, "But I'm a musician..." A musician, indeed.
One of Jose's most memorable moments came on December 1, 1987 when he joined other entertainment legends in having his star permanently implanted on the world renowned Hollywood Walk of Fame. Similarly, he's also been given a star on the Walk of Fame in his native Puerto Rico alongside Jose Ferrer and Raul Julia and had his hands cast for the world famous Wall of Fame in Madame Tussaud's in London, England.
Jose and Susan have been together since 1971. In 1988 they were blessed with a daughter, Melissa Anne, in 1991 with their first son, Jonathan Jose and in 1995, with their third child, Michael Julian. Together they live in a 275+ year-old former tavern-turned-homestead on a river in Fairfield County, Connecticut. It's lively, even noisy at times; the perfect place for an active household like the Feliciano Family! When Jose is home, his time is spent writing and recording in his studio, enjoying baseball -- both playing and listening to on the radio -- and being a dad!
Over the years, Jose has been a part of many historic events. He has shared the stage with other internationally renowned artists, for example, at an event where he co-headlined with Paul Simon and James Taylor at the internationally acclaimed 'Back To The Ranch Benefit' on Long Island for an estimated twelve thousand people.
Throughout the late 90's there were numerous TV specials in which Jose appeared around the world. He performed throughout the USA and Canada as well as England, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, Australia, The Philippines, Chile, Argentina and Brazil. There was no sign of slowing down or resting on his laurels...in fact, Jose felt he was just getting started.
The recent years have seen Jose continuing to travel to all corners of the globe: from India to Brazil and from Australia to Germany. Having visited over eighty countries across the face of the Earth for more than two generations, his current itinerary proves that he has no intention of slowing down anytime soon and 2012, should it please God, will be no different.

Jose's gifts of time, treasure and talent have earned him, over the years, the reputation of great humanitarian and "Ambassador of Good Will" throughout the world. "I'll never forget where I came from or the people who helped my family or me along the way". For this reason, Jose will often lend a hand or his name in support of causes that he believes are important. Even though Jose has recorded nearly 70 albums in his impressive career he is still humble with all the successes he has had and, remarkably, feels that he has just started to share his talents with the world.
