NORTH CHARLESTON — Daryl Hall, who used to live in Charleston, is now coming back for a concert.
The rock ‘n’ roll hall of famer, made popular by pop-rock music duo Hall & Oates, will play at the North Charleston Performing Arts Center on Aug. 11.

Hall bought and renovated a house on Meeting Street, below Broad Street, in the 2010s, which he lived in for years and then sold during the pandemic.
Hall began sharing his love for home preservation and restoration back in 2014 on his Magnolia Network show “Daryl’s Restoration Over-Hall.”

“One of my passions outside of music is antique architecture,” Hall told The Post and Courier over the phone. “Obviously, Charleston is chock-full of it. I found this 1750s house South of Broad and renovated it and lived there for years.”
Hall said his passion for architecture and renovating, along with music, runs in his family. His grandfather was a stone and brick mason and used to build houses and chimneys. So, Hall was around a lot of construction sites in his hometown of Philadelphia; he used to help with some renovations himself.
He’s also spent a lot of time in England renovating houses there, some of which are featured on his TV show.
“I really love the craftsmanship involved in it,” he said.

He shared that his Charleston house needed less of a restoration than many of the other houses he’s worked on in the past, but he did restore some parts of the top two floors and tore one floor apart completely to reconfigure the space.
“I didn’t want to alter the integrity of the house,” Hall said. “I’m a purist. I mostly left it alone.”
Now, he lives in Connecticut in another house he’s restored, but he remembers his time in Charleston fondly.
Hall, who classifies himself as a homebody, said he didn’t go out much when he lived here but loved to host friends at his home.
“I’m not a person who likes to do a lot of things,” he said with a laugh. “But I do love Charleston. It’s one of my favorite cities.”
