John Oates of the iconic pop-rock duo Hall & Oates recently shared a new solo single, “Mending,” featuring Devon Gilfillian.

“I became a fan of Devon Gillfillian the first time I heard him perform in Nashville and sensed the Philly soul right away…we became friends and this song is the first thing we wrote together,” Oates said. “My wife wanted to help with some inspiration and pulled a random Tarot card that morning…it was ‘MENDING; and we both knew it would be our song title…so proud to be creating with him.”

Gilfillian said, “As a fellow Philly Native, I’ve been such a huge fan of John Oates since I can remember. Luckily, we’ve both landed in Nashville at this stage of our lives. I’ve known he’s in town for a while, but I was too shy to reach out. Thankfully, John hit me up a few months ago, and it was magic. The first time we got together to write we got this beautiful song that started from a tarot card that John’s wife Aimee pulled, and that turned into this beautiful story of love and repair. It’s so inspiring writing with John and I’m so honored to sing with such a legend. I hope ‘Mending’ heals some hearts and makes some more lovin’ happen.”
