“Yo bro, did you hear that new Steely Dan?”
“Nah bro. Is it good?”
“Come on the yacht bro and we’ll rock to it?”
That exchange is how I believe the term yacht rock was born.
Every genre of music has sub-genres and rock music probably has more than any other type of music.
Yacht Rock isn’t an actual subgenre of rock, but rather a term coined to describe the sweet soft, jazzy rock jams of the ‘70s and early ‘80s.
Today’s playlist will you have feeling like you’re wearing your favorite polo and ascot and getting ready to set sail.
