Jos was born blind, to humble beginnings, on September 10, 1945, in Lares, Puerto Rico. One of eleven boys, he was five-years-old when his family immigrated to New York City. He was immediately drawn to music and taught himself to play the guitar, listening to vinyl records and practicing as many as 14 hours a day. And he was inspired to sing by hearing Rock'n'Roll music of the 50's. He started his career playing in coffee houses in Greenwich Village and travelling to clubs and cafes from Boston to Cleveland to Detroit, Chicago and Colorado. A music critic from the New York Times, reviewing his performance at Gerde's Folk City, referred to him as a "10-fingered wizard who romps, runs, rolls, picks and reverberates his six strings in an incomparable fashion." His talents got him signed to RCA Records in the U.S. And in the Spanish market, he soon became a superstar. Taking long-time standards and torch songs from another era, he re-worked and re-fashioned them with his signature acoustic guitar style and his vocal inflections of jazz and American influences, making them sound brand new. By the time he was 23, Jos 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. His career also included acting, and he made a number of dramatic TV appearances, including an episode of "Kung Fu", "McMillan and Wife" and "Chico and the Man," for which he wrote and performed the theme song. In the early 90's, he hosted a radio program on a local Westport, Connecticut, radio station, WMMM.

Although he's written and recorded countless hits, the three songs that have become milestones for Feliciano in his career are his original interpretation of The Doors' "Light My Fire," which topped the charts globally in 1968; "Che Sara," a 1971 San Remo Music Festival entry that became a mega-success for Jos throughout Europe, Asia and South America; and "Feliz Navidad," the Christmas song that has now become a tradition worldwide during the holiday season every year. It has become a top iTunes download, and ASCAP has placed it among the 25 Greatest Holiday Songs of the Century.

In 2005, Jos recorded a collection of Mexican Mariachis. In "A Mexico...con Amor," he was able to express his affection for the people and music of Mexico in much the same way he'd illuminated the beauty of the bolero. In September 2006, The Hispanic Heritage Foundation, an organization that identifies, inspires, promotes and prepares Latino role models through national leadership, cultural, educational and workforce programs, honored Jos with their prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. In 2008, Jos explored the typical countryside music of the Dominicanos - The Bachata. The album, part of his now-popular "Seor Series," was aptly titled, "Seor Bachata!" won two Grammy Awards, for "Best Contemporary Tropical Album" by LARAS, the Latin Association of Recording Arts and Sciences and "Best Tropical Album" by NARAS, the National Association of Recording Arts and Sciences. In November 2011, LARAS honored him with their prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of his life's work.

He and his wife Susan live in a centuries-old former tavern-turned-homestead on a river in Fairfield County, Connecticut. They have a daughter and two sons. Jos's current release, "The King ... by Jos Feliciano" is a collection of twelve of Jos's favorite Elvis Presley songs, recorded in his inimitable style and released in August 2012.
