Daryl Hall Announces First Solo Tour in a Decade Supporting Retrospective Album
For the first time in a decade, Daryl Hall is plotting a tour all on his own. The brief, eight-date trek will kick off on April 1 in support of his first solo career retrospective album BeforeAfter, set for release on the same day.
Alongside special guest Todd Rundgren, Hall will make stops at New York’s Carnegie Hall, the MET Philadelphia, and Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium, in addition to shows in Georgia, Massachusetts, Illinois, Ohio, and Maryland. Tickets for the tour will be available starting Friday, Jan. 28 at 10 a.m. local time. Sales for Carnegie Hall will be delayed an hour to begin at 11 a.m. ET.
The tour setlist will be stacked with cuts from Hall’s five solo records, which make up the entirety of BeforeAfter. The 30-track collection was selected and arranged by the pop singer and songwriter himself. The two-disc tracklist spans three decades with releases from 1980, when he made his solo debut with the Robert Fripp-produced Sacred Songs, to 2011 when Laughing Down Crying arrived following the death of its co-producer T-Bone Wolk.
BeforeAfter will also feature six newly released live performances from the 2007 series Live From Daryl’s House with guest appearances from Rundgren, Stewart, and Monte Montgomery.
In a statement, Hall shared: “I picked this collection of songs from my solo albums because I feel they encapsulate certain periods of my career. It also shows the diversity of working with collaborators like Robert Fripp or Dave Stewart. And, having some tracks from LFDH on it, really makes the compilation complete.”
