John Oates and percussionist John Michel are accustomed to Colorado’s intense solar and excessive altitude. “We’re two native boys. We simply got here down from the mountain to play for ya,” he advised the Aspen Concepts Competition viewers standing amongst the sage brushes that fill the meadow.
Oates and Michel have been taking part in collectively for greater than 20 years, which is obvious on this easygoing, but steadfast efficiency. Although only a duo, their sound is filled with harmonies and rhythms that improve the songwriting.
However should you’re anticipating to listen to an previous Corridor & Oates hit, John Oates has some information for you: “Songwriters all the time wish to play their new songs and the followers all the time wish to hear the previous songs. Properly you are out of luck.” Really, it was a lucky alternative to listen to some pretty songs from Oates’ solo initiatives, together with one from a soon-to-be launched album.
