Beloved, critically acclaimed musician John Oates has released his long-awaited Americana album, MississippiMile. The album emanates Oates’ musical autobiography with classic hits that influenced Oates to become the renowned musician he is known as today.

“Oates’s latest album, Mississippi Mile, is a rootsy homage to the Americana that initially inspired him.” – The New Yorker

“For his solo album Mississippi Mile…Oates dips into his pre-Hall & Oates pop-soul past for a collection of raw, original tunes and covers of such Delta blues and folk masters as Elvis Presley, Curtis Mayfield, and Mississippi John Hurt.” – Philadelphia Inquirer

“[Mississippi Mile] has the opportunity to reach across the board – and that’s a winning formula.” – Nashville Lifestyles
