T-Bone Wolk, bass player for Hall & Oates, dies
LOS ANGELES — Tom “T-Bone” Wolk, the mainstay bassist of Hall & Oates’ band for nearly 30 years, has died of an apparent heart attack. He was 58.
The band’s manager, Jonathan Wolfson, says Wolk died Sunday in Pawling, N.Y., where he had been recording a solo album with Daryl Hall.
Wolk joined Hall & Oates in 1981. He was also a member of the “Saturday Night Live” house band in 1986-92 and performed with numerous other musicians, including Carly Simon, Billy Joel and Avril Lavigne.
Wolfson says Wolk was preparing to appear Monday with Hall & Oates on “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.”
