Reagan Rockin' at Park Tavern
Friday, April 11 Yacht Rock Revue hosted their annual back to the future- or, past- timewarp celebration of Reagan Rock Prom; an excuse for us all to pile on the blue eyeshadow, bangles, and dust off the ol' ruffled tux. This year's prom partiers did not disappoint. Although many dressed to impress, this year's winning Reagan Rock Prom King and Queen raised the bar with coordinating pastels, metallics, and sky high hair. Congrats to the featured couple on their totally rad look and a pair of tickets to this year's Yacht Rock Revival.

X-Mix 2013 Wrap-Up
For Mixtape Atlanta's annual X-Mix held on Friday, December 13 at Vinyl, the venue was transformed into a vision of merry and scary to reflect this year's theme of The Nightmare Before X-Mix.
Whynatte kicked off the party with a toast and round of shots for all those 21 and over, and Yosef was first to take the stage in a line-up that included Mel Washington, Wesley Cook, Aerobics Cube, The Electric Sons, and a rock filled finale by James Hall. Yacht Rock Revue also stopped by to perform a few songs. While dancing and music was had onstage, revelry and- probably too many Whynatte shots- overtook the crowd, including notable guests Butch Walker and members from Skid Row.
All proceeds from the night benefited Songs for Kids Foundation, and HUGE holiday hugs to all that donated in addition to the door cover.
Check out all the fun from the stage to the photo booth here.
All Things Yachty and Bright
Yacht Rock Revue returned to Variety Playhouse for their annual holiday special featuring smooth tunes and tacky sweaters. Thanks to all who donated to the Atlanta Community Food Bank by getting their photo taken in Mixtape Atlanta's photo booth.

Rain, Revival, and Rock
Downpour showers and flood warnings couldn't stop Yacht Rock Revue and their list of special guests from sailing into Chastain Park Amphitheater for their annual revival on July 20. The band's trademark precision also translated to the skies, because when they took the stage a little after 8:30pm the rain stopped and the dance floor began to dry.
Yacht Rock Schooner got the party started under the veil of drizzle to serenade the brave poncho wearers and rain delayed crowd. Atlanta's own Starbuck reunited for a special performance and quick set before the classic Yacht Rock troop took the stage.
For nearly two hours, Yacht Rock Revue was joined by original yacht rockers including Bobby Kimball (lead singer of Toto), Bill Champlin formerly Of Chicago, Jeff Carlisi (.38 Special), Robbie Dupree, Elliot Lurie (Looking Glass), and Walter Egan. After hours of shuffling, dancing, duets, harmonies, and nonstop performing the night culminated in a showstopping finale of "Lido" featuring all generations of yacht rockers.

Happy Retro New Year
Before the clock struck midnight on 2013, partiers at Park Tavern's New Year's Eve Bash featuring Yacht Rock Revue went back in time to pose in a special Mixtape Atlanta photo booth celebrating one of the yachtiest year's: 1979.
Since the night's revelry focused around the smooth hits of the 1970s and 1980s, it just made sense to toast a year when yachts were rocking to the "fresh" sounds for Captain & Tennille. Pick up your dated (but not out-of-date) 1979 New Year's Eve photo here.December 24, 2012

...Now a Message from Kenny Bloggins
On the fence about attending the 2nd Annual Greatest Yacht Rock Revival in the Universe? Pondering how is will be different from last year? Wondering how the Yacht Rockers select the order of their vast set list? Luckily, we have your answers straight from the source. We now present you with a message from the desk of Kenny Bloggins...
You know them, you love them, you want them to help get your parents back together after the costly divorce. On Saturday August 18th they will again set a new world record for the most captain's hats EVER worn at a single time when they take the stage in Piedmont Park for the Greatest Yacht Rock Revival in the Universe. Last year's festival featured opening sets by Little River Band and Ambrosia and some of Atlanta's best food trucks.
How will they top this? I honestly have no idea. But rumor has it that the plethora of special guests that will be joining us (Gary Wright - "Dream Weaver," "Love is Alive"; Robbie Dupree - "Steal Away"; Peter Beckett of Player - "Baby Come Back"; John Ford Coley - "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight"; Elliot Lurie of Looking Glass - "Brandy"; Walter Egan - "Magnet and Steel"; and Starbuck - "Moonlight Feels Right") will all draw names from the captain's hat worn by Ted Turner in the 1977 America's Cup found in an abandoned Long John Silver's. This will determine the order at which they perform. Then there will be a raffle in the VIP area to win the opportunity to assign which songs are performed by each artist. Finally, the song choices will be placed in a tube which will be delivered to the stage by a trained seagull. The ghost of Dan Fogelberg will open the envelope and determine whether the Schooner or the Yacht Rock Revue gets to back up the artists on their respective song selections. Gates at 4 PM. Bring your Dramamine®.
Buy your Yacht Rock Revival tickets here or at the door for $30. Don't forget to stop by the Mixtape Atlanta photo booth for your official (and free!) cruise picture from 6-8PM.

Yacht Rock Revue Deports from 10 High
Four years ago, the ultimate "Surprise Party" shocked many as the popularity of Yacht Rock night became a movement and changing tide in the Atlanta music scene. What started as the guys from Y.O.U. donning some polyester, side stepping, and inviting sailors into the cozy 10 High has evolved into one of the most popular headlining acts in the city at venues ten-times the size of the intimate basement.
On June 21, Yacht Rock Revue will depart from its monthly residency at 10 High. Their mates in smooth Yacht Rock Schooner will join the original crew onstage for a night that will involve dancing, side stepping, and much smoothness. Celebrate their successful time at the Virginia Highlands venue on Thursday, June 21 at 9:30PM for the last Yacht Rock at 10 High ever.
Just in time for Summer, Yacht Rock Revue has recently released their own original smooth hits. Visit iTunes and download their songs "Can't Wait for Summer" and "Good Thing." Both hits are also available on vinyl at YRR Merchandise table. Check out the groovy music video for "Can't Wait for Summer."
