Smooth grooves: Your 2018 yacht rock concert calendar

As is the name of my blog, “Yacht Rock & Me,” I am an aficionado, fan and practitioner of all things yacht rock. The least I could do is make my site a resource for other yacht rock fans.

So, I’ve created this concert calendar. I’ll work to update it and improve it throughout the year. If there is a singer or band you’d like me to add to this list, I’d be happy to do so. Message me at ryanwelton@gmail.com.
