Please come join us for  an evening of great music from one of SOCALs most talented Yacht Rock acts . All five musicians:  Kevin Bachelder  - Vocalist / Trumpet , Allison Piccioni - Vocalist / Keys / Sax , Dieter Weinzettl -  Drums,  Henry Soliz - Bass  and Frank Browne - Guitar / MD .  have opened for and or performed with numerous  National touring acts over the last several Years as well as laying down licks as top notch musicians on various albums and other music era acts throughout their careers. The Yacht Rock style of music which has been coined Yacht Rock has only been in the last 10 years but it’s an endearing term to describe what is a basically a hybrid of Jazz , Rock, Pop and Soul. Baby Boomers used to call it EZ Listening or Kick Back Music.  It was an easy choice for the band to want to join similar creative forces since having had experience in the genres from those ongoing musical endeavors.

The Yacht Groove became a reality a few Years ago as a high end Corporate Party Music Agency band booked primarily at: Country Clubs, Special Events and Birthday Parties but in the last couple years they have been doing City parks, Casinos, and Festivals as well. . This tightly knit fun pop rock act THE YACHT GROOVE will not disappoint. The show performance format is usually a 90 minute concert or done as two shows with a short  intermission .  

Performing a concert style compilation of all the recognizable 70’s & 80s radio rock hits you hate to admit you love. This party band cranks out all those party hits of yesterday in a fun filled show format while dressed in laid back Nautical attire and throwing in some smooth yachty era banter. So come on out and join the fun . Jump on board, enjoy the ride and be the Captain of your own Yacht Rock musical experience.  Here’s to good friends. No socks required,  sun screen optional.
