202 4 Bio
John Oates is cofounder of the iconic music creators Hall & Oates, as well as an
accomplished solo artist. He is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, The American
Songwriters Hall of Fame, recipient of the prestigious BMI Icon Award as well as numerous
American Music, MTV awards, and multiple Grammy nominations.
Since forming his creative partnership with Daryl Hall in the early 1970s, they have gone
on to record 21 albums, which have sold over 80 million units, making them the most successful duo in rock history. They have scored 10 number one records, over 20 Top 40 hits, and have toured the world for decades. Their involvement in the original "Live Aid" concert and the groundbreaking "We Are The World" charity recording have further established them as
legendary artists, who have personally and through their music, stood the test of time.
Since embarking on a solo career in 1999, John has recorded seven solo albums: Phu
Phunk Shui/ 1000 Miles of Life/ Mississippi Mile/ The Bluesville Sessions/ Good Road To Follow/ Arkansas and Live from Nashville with the Good Road Band. In addition, his 2017 autobiography “Change of Season” released by St. Martin’s press, became an Amazon best seller.
In 2023 he released a series of new original digital singles distributed by
“The Orchard” in a wide variety of eclectic styles as well as penning another series of songs for the feature film “Gringa”. His most recent recording project is titled “Folk-esque” and is scheduled for release in early 2024. He is currently performing an intimate series of solo acoustic shows called an “Evening of Songs and Stories” in America and around the world.
In 2021, John and his wife Aimee partnered with the streaming broadcast service
NugsTV and co-producer Drive Entertainment Group to create a virtual celebration of stories
and songs called “OATES SONG FEST 7908“. Inspired by a live series of shows that they
created in 2010 at the historic Wheeler Opera House in Aspen, CO.
“OATES SONG FEST 7908” became a free streaming concert with all donations and
proceeds going to FEEDINGAMERICA.ORG . The broadcast featured an all-star roster of artists
all of whom have volunteered their songs and performances to help families without food
across the nation, and as a result, over 450,000 meals were provided for American families.
In 2022, John became the international ambassador for “MOVEMBER” the men’s health initiative and released a new original song called “Pushing A Rock” with a theme of overcoming life’s challenges and struggles.
Oates continues to be involved in his passion for automobiles and motorsport with his collection of sports cars and active participation in concours events and the Porsche Club of America.
John and his wife Aimee reside in Nashville, Tennessee and Aspen, Colorado.
