Since 2016, Yachty by Nature has been bringing the very best in LIVE Yacht Rock, delivering feel-good hits from the late ’70s and early ’80s. This high-energy, 6-piece band plays nostalgic favorites from Michael McDonald, Hall & Oates, Steely Dan, Boz Scaggs, Christopher Cross, Toto, and more—with expert musicianship, irresistible rhythm, and nonstop fun.
With Scotty McYachty and Julie McCoy on vocals, and the rest of the crew—Captain Carl, Wes Coast, Big Wave Dave, and Pacific Rim—locking in that signature yacht groove, it’s a musical voyage you won’t want to miss.
“To celebrate our 25th anniversary, we’re throwing a yacht party to remember,” said SBMM Executive Director Greg Gorga.“This event celebrates 25 years of SBMM and honors our members, supporters, and the entire Santa Barbara community who have helped shape the museum into what it is today.”
Put on your captain’s hat, bring your best dockside style, and come celebrate 25 years of SBMM with live music, food, drinks, and harbor views that can’t be beat.
