Daryl Hall (born October 11, 1946, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) was half of the music duo Hall & Oates.

His mother played songs by Frank Sinatra and Barry Manilow to him as a child. In the 1960s he attended Temple University where he first met John Oates. After John transferred schools Daryl joined the band Gulliver, which produced one eponymous album before disbanding. Hall & Oates was formed in 1972 when John returned to Philadelphia.

In 1977 Daryl Hall teamed up with Robert Fripp to produce his first solo album, called Sacred Songs. RCA were worried about the uncommercial nature of the album, however, and it wasn't released until 1980. His second solo album, Three Hearts in the Happy Ending Machine is notable for the song Dreamtime, which enjoyed moderate chart success.
