The Wiltern
The Yacht Rock Revue guys are taking over the Wiltern Theater LA on Thursday, June 19th. They promise to be one of the most upbeat yet soft rock nights that you'll find anywhere. They're going on a short tour titled "Yacht Rock Forever." If you've been to these shows, you know that they are all about top tracks from the 70s and 80s. It's not necessarily one of those events where you want to act as a music critic.
What takes Yacht Rock Revue over the top is this ability to have the crowd in a great mood. You'll be singing and dancing to hit after hit all night long. Out of the tribute shows that you can find in LA, of which there are many, the main difference with this one is that they're not trying to mimic any one performer. It's more of an experience where talented musicians play karaoke, and everyone involved has a blast! Click the get tickets button to be a part of this show.
What is Yacht Rock exactly? Yacht Rock is actually not a term that these guys made up! It's a sub-genre that encompasses mid-1970s to mid-1980s soft rock. It's also been called "West Coast Sound." In this particular show at the Wiltern Theater, you can bet that the band is going to lean into a lot of the songs that came out of LA throughout the '70s and '80s. Throughout the years, they've also incorporated certain tracks that were popular in the 90s, and for special occasions, maybe some Beach Boys. Surfing USA comes to mind, a song that has the potential to get the crowd rolling at the Wiltern Theater on Thursday, June 19th. Yes, this track's from the 60s, but the Yacht Rock Revue guys are not limited by decades or anything like that.
Although trying to pinpoint the set list for this show at The Wiltern is going to be a massive challenge, there's one thing that's a guarantee. That's the good vibes that the group gives off from the stage. Yacht Rock is necessarily a concept that was made on cruise ships, but for the uninitiated, that's one of the things that this show can be compared to. It's like one of those 80s nights on the ship where it's just a list of songs everyone knows; the group will have the audience in a groove! Nights like these go by fast. It's almost only until you look back on it that you realize what an amazing time you had.
Pretty much all of the seats at The Wiltern are going to be stripped to create standing-room areas for this event. If you want to be up close to the band, the pit is still the spot for you. On a night like this, there's some value in standing near the bar. This is the type of band that will have you in the mood to sip some margaritas. The two things that you can do to ensure you have a great night is to arrive here early on Thursday, June 19th. That gives you a better chance of finding a good spot! The second one is something you can do right now, which is to click that get tickets button.
