Best of Orlando®-winning art gallery CityArts sets sail this weekend on the seas of smooth with an evening devoted to yacht rock.
Yes, yacht rock, the 1970s easy-on-the-ears offshoot of rock & roll that dispensed with heavy riffs and instead indulged in silky vocals, high-end production, and laid-back tempos and song structures.
Local outfit Estate Sale Boat channels the velvety-soft likes of Christopher Cross, Hall & Oates, Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins, delivered with a wink and perhaps even a sea-captain’s hat perched on at least one member.
8:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 26, City Arts, 39 S. Magnolia Ave., orlandoweeklytickets.com, $30.
