John Oates and More January Live Show News

On Sunday, January 14 Larry Groce will welcome back John Oates to Mountain Stage as the show travels to Morgantown, WV to kick-off its historic 35th season of live performance radio. A member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame duo Hall and Oates, John Oates has been releasing solo material since 1999. In April 2017 he released his memoir “Change of Seasons.”

Now Oates is prepping for the release of “Arkansas” his latest album of roots and Americana music, due in early-2018. Originally inspired by the music and legacy of the legendary Mississippi John Hurt, the project grew to encompass other artists and styles that represent the dawn of American popular music. Oates crafted a number of original songs for the Arkansas album; selections actually inspired by the process of digging deep into the sonic soil of authentic roots music. “Arkansas” is available for pre-order now.

Oates will be joined by The Good Road Band when he appears January 14, along with already announced guests Tyminski, the latest modern country-effort from Dan Tyminski, Nashville based songwriter Lilly Hiatt, whose latest “Trinity Lane” was produced by Michael Trent of Shovels & Rope, plus a special performance from West Virginia’s beloved storyteller Bil Lepp.

Tickets are available now online and by phone 304.293.SHOW.
