"Growing up in Philly, we used to play in a lot of the same places Daryl did," says Michael, marveling over how the six degrees of separation between the Bacons and Hall has brought them together after all these years.

Long before Kevin Bacon was a Hollywood star of stage and screen, and Michael a go-to film and television composer, the brothers shared a love of music. Michael Bacon was signed to Columbia Records right out of school in the group "Good News" and found success as a songwriter in Nashville. "My earliest memory of music was what my brother was playing or the music he brought home," Kevin Bacon recalls. The Bacon Brothers formed in 1994 and are soon to release their sixth album New Year's Day on March 24th. They have managed to juggle independent success as well as a touring rock band.

The pair join Daryl for a set book-ended by Rolling Stones classics and Bobby Womack tracks "It's All Over Now" and "The Last Time." They also perform several songs from The Bacon Brothers upcoming release including the title track "New Year's Day," the current single "Go My Way (the iPod Song)," "Tell Me What I Have To Do," and "Bunch Of Words," as well as a cover of "When The Morning Comes."

"'Go My Way' is sorta my attempt to write a Daryl Hall song," laughs Kevin Bacon. "I ran into Daryl in a restaurant and he showed me a clip and I realized Live From Daryl's House is a place where you can see musicians perform and interact with one another, and how this magical thing comes together. It's a behind-the-scenes look at how music is actually made. When we got the call to be on the show, I was thrilled."

Past episodes of Live from Daryl's House have featured a mix of well-known performers like Nick Lowe, K.T. Tunstall, Gym Class Heroes and Finger Eleven, along with newcomers such as Canadian techno-rockers Chromeo, Eric Hutchinson, Cash Money rocker Kevin Rudolf and Wind-up Records' Chicago rockers Company of Thieves.
