Homeless Pianist Reunited With Son [Video]

A homeless man's piano playing has turned his life upside down.

In the week since enthralling a Tampa, Florida crowd with his take on Styx' 'Come Sail Away', Donald Gould has received a makeover, been offered a college scholarship, and now he's been reunited with his son, a Michigan resident.

“Music took me around the world before I was 21 and somehow, my music now has gotten me back together with my son,” Donald Gould told WOOD TV 8 via video call on Tuesday.

According to the News 8 web site, Donald’s son is living in West Michigan near South Haven. After they saw Gould’s video, they contacted 24 Hour News 8.

After Donny was removed from his father’s custody, he was adopted by his grandmother. When she had trouble raising him, he was adopted by another couple named Darryl and Terri. “We prayed about it and it was like we felt that God led us to do this,” Donny’s dad Darryl told 24 Hour News 8 on Tuesday.

Now 18, Donny just graduated high school, likes to play basketball and just landed his first job. He told 24 Hour News 8 he doesn’t have any memories of his biological dad.

“I’ve thought sometimes about it, of exactly where he might have been and what he might have been doing,” Donny said.
