John Oates, well known as one half of Hall & Oates, the best selling rock duo of all time, has shifted his focus to a burgeoning solo career. As Hall & Oates faded from view and put their studio days behind them, John Oates, already a co-writer of eight Billboard Number One hits, released his debut solo album, Phunk Shui, in 2002. Oates is touring in support of his third solo album, Mississippi Mile, released in April 2011. The album is an exploration of the roots of Oates’ early influences and of American pop and rock music in general.
