Daryl Hall revealed he would be joining Billy Joel’s headline show at BST Hyde Park festival as a supporting act.
As one of the most popular recording artists and respected entertainers in history, Billy Joel will perform on the iconic stage on Friday July 7, with the famous special guest.
Like his friend Billy, Daryl is an international musical treasure – he is an inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the star of his very own award-winning web series-turned-TV staple, Live from Daryl’s House.
This special BST summer appearance will see the star make his Hyde Park debut.
Daryl also announced his headline show two days later with Daryl’s House Band and special guest Todd Rundgren at London’s Eventim Apollo on Sunday July 9.

Elsewhere for Billy, one of the most recognised concert films of all time – Live At Yankee Stadium – came to cinemas on Wednesday 5 and Sunday 9 October in celebration of 50 years of Billy Joel.
He is the sixth best-selling recording artist of all time and the third best-selling solo artist, as well as one of the biggest concert draws in the world.
The star’s songs have acted as personal and cultural touchstones for millions of people across five decades.
