Warm Up with Yacht Rock Performed by Boat House Row at the Strand Center for the Arts

(PLATTSBURGH, NY – January 10, 2025) Boat House Row hits the stage at the Strand Center for the Arts Theatre on Saturday, Jan. 18, at 7 p.m. This musical group promises to deliver a fun, mellow yacht rock experience wherever it goes. It may be snowing outside, but inside, audience members can warm up with music reminiscent of summers out on the lake.

What is “yacht rock”? In the musical sense, yacht rock refers to the highly polished soft rock that emanated from Southern California between 1976 and 1984. The term is meant to suggest the kind of smooth, mellow music that early yuppies likely enjoyed while sipping champagne on their yachts.

Significant “yacht rockers” include Hall & Oates, Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, Christopher Cross, Steely Dan, Toto and many more. Boat House Row pays tribute to these artists in their set.
