Discussion | Lazy Daze: The Soul of Yacht Rock

Sunday, June 9, 2024, 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm

Free

A panel discussion moderated by Scott Barkham (artist manager, yacht rock aficionado) with Gary Katz (producer, Steely Dan) and Greg Caz (world renowned DJ), as well as a DJ set dedicated to the enduring legacy of what is now commonly referred to as yacht rock.

Between the years of 1974-1981 the radio title of soft rock was the introductory reference in radio circles. And from those origins, they’ll explore what it REALLY is.  A better term is probably soul rock, also called blue eyed soul, because the genre has a delicate yet natural balance between the worlds of AOR rock radio/AM radio and 70’s R&B.

The significant aspect of this genre within a genre is its position in the vocabulary of crossover and cultural reference, and an undeniably positive and lasting connection across the American racial divide. It was embraced by many, and derided by few, and it dominated the AOR and AM airwaves when radio was king.
