Yacht Rock Revue
Yacht Rock Revue dials in the soft-focus frequencies of 1978 and lets them glide. From Atlanta, the group delivers satin harmonies and airtight grooves, channeling Steely Dan, Michael McDonald, and Hall & Oates with a wink and the precision of studio lifers. Since 2007 they have grown a devoted crowd by pairing meticulous covers with originals that feel like sea breeze on vinyl. Nicholas Niespodziani and Peter Olson guide the voyage on vocals, guitars, keys, and percussion, with Greg Lee anchoring bass, Mark Dannells on guitar, and Mark Bencuya at the keys. David B. Freeman paints the margins with saxophones and flute, while Keisha and Kourtney Jackson lift every chorus with radiant harmonies and percussion. Drummers Jason Nackers and Ganesh Giri Jaya keep the pocket unshakable. From club nights to festival lawns from Atlanta to Nashville, every show turns into a floating party.
