Hall & Oates co-founder Daryl Hall recently underwent a kidney transplant.

In a statement posted to Instagram on Tuesday, the musician announced that he had received the kidney from a "living donor".

"Hi everybody!" he began. "I thought you should know that I recently received a kidney transplant from a very kind and generous living donor. It happened a couple of weeks ago, and I'm already starting to feel better. It was, according to my doctors, a complete success!"

Live kidney donation refers to when a healthy person donates one of their kidneys to someone whose kidneys don't work, and need dialysis or a transplant to stay alive. Most people can lead a normal life with one kidney.

Hall went on to note that he should be "back to normal" in a few months.

"So get ready for more music and lots of Daryl's House shows. You all take care!" the 79-year-old added.

Back in 2005, Hall was forced to postpone a string of Hall & Oates shows as he had been diagnosed with Lyme disease.

The Rich Girl hitmaker released his sixth solo album, D, in June 2024.

Most recently, Hall has hosted Live from Daryl's House, an online music series in which the singer-songwriter performs with his band and various guests at his home in Millerton, New York.

Though Hall & Oates were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014, Hall and John Oates announced in 2023 that they would no longer perform together due to a legal battle over their publishing rights.

The dispute was resolved in August 2025.
