Travis McCoy To Appear On Live From Daryl’s House
If you were unaware, Daryl Hall (one half of Hall & Oats) has his own web cast called Live From Daryl’s House which usually features him playing alongside other musicians in his home. The fifteenth episode of Live From Daryl’s House will air this Friday, February 15th at 8PM and will feature Travis performing alongside Daryl. It is absolutely free to view, and if you haven’t seen an episode of Live From Daryl’s House yet, you will have to register for an account. The program is said to feature the two collaborating on a version of the Daryl Hall written song “Everytime You Go Away,” a #1 hit for Paul Young, and a version of Hall & Oates’ own “You Make My Dreams” mashed up with the Gym Class Heroes’ “The Queen and I.”
Daryl and Travie have become friends lately, as Travis has been a long time fan of his and the music of Hall & Oats. They have been making music together lately, as reported in an earlier blog, and Daryl will be a featured artist on the upcoming Gym Class Heroes album due out this summer. Of the collaboration, Travis McCoy says, “Part of me was horrified before working with Daryl to be honest. There are 2 people I hold high on my caste system of people I think are cooler than me, my father being the other. I grew up on Daryl’s voice. I am forever grateful for the chance to work with and befriend someone I’ve looked up to all these years.”
Daryl Hall responds, “Words fail to express the fun and creative fulfillment that I had recording and playing with Travis. I think the combination of his poetry and my musicality came together in a very historic way, and I don’t say that lightly.”
