Join for an informal discussion and DJ set dedicated to the enduring legacy of what is now commonly referred to as yacht rock as part of our Lazy Daze series.
Presenting a panel discussion moderated by Scott Barkham (artist manager, yacht rock aficionado) with Gary Katz (producer, Steely Dan) and Rich Medina (world renowned DJ), as well as a DJ set. Presented in partnership with the Conservancy.
How did this unique blend of soul and rock manage to appeal to the masses without crying out cultural appropriation? Was this a reaction to the revolution of the 60’s and massive exhaustion post-Watergate? Or an escape (if you like pina coladas…)? P.S. How and why did yachts get involved in this discussion?? Join us on a lazy Sunday afternoon for the answers. (Beer and Wine for sale only… no pina coladas, sorry.)
Come with friends, or come alone — these afternoons are an opportunity to relax, lay out, and do not too much of anything, while a rotation of DJ’s do their thing in the background. We’re taking lazy Sundays very seriously, creating moments for good vibes and good people. Food and drink will be available for sale by Fornino.
Only adults 21 and over may purchase alcohol, which must be consumed on site. No outside alcohol or glass bottles will be permitted.
