The Sound of Sailing: Yacht Rock and It's Many Influences ⛵

Wednesday, 4 Feb 2026 - 17:00

Description

Join Harvey & Tolan, URY's resident soft-rock aficionados, as we sail the gentle ocean waves of the 1970s and explore the soothing sounds of yacht rock. In this two hour deep-dive special we explore yacht rock and the category's many influences, formations and ultimate demise. So sit back, relax, and let us transport you beyond the depths of winter back to a by-gone age where short-shorts and cuban cigars ruled the waves.
