Daryl started the monthly web show in November 2007 after having the idea of “playing with my friends and putting it up on the Internet,” and the show instantly garnered acclaim from music mainstream publications such as Rolling Stone, SPIN, Daily Variety, CNN, BBC, Yahoo! Music and influential blogger Bob Lefsetz, who have cited Live From Daryl’s House as, “The perfect example of a veteran artist reinventing himself in the digital age by collaborating with both established colleagues and newer performers.”  The show was an immediate hit with both viewers and critics and went on to win a WEBBY Award in 2010 in the Variety Category.

About the addition of his series to the rural and family-values focused networks, Daryl Hall says, “I’ve been watching RFD-TV for a few years.  As a person who lives mostly in the country, I appreciate a network that shows the many facets of rural life.  I think that this is an important network in America and I’m really excited about the fact that Live from Daryl’s House is going to be part of that, “

Randy Bernard, CEO for Rural Media Group adds, “Live from Daryl’s House is the perfect fit for our family-focused Sunday night primetime lineup. Daryl brings a stunning roster of guest stars, great music and a truly enjoyable show that’s suitable for everyone in the family to watch and enjoy together.”
