Smoothest Sounds in Town

When we heard about Yacht Rock Sundays, we just about had a heart attack from sheer joy. On Sunday, December 2, we boarded at the Ruby Room Lounge for an evening of smooth sounds — for our second time around — and will definitely make it for the third journey, which has set course to arrive on December 16.

There was an intimate crew of other light-rock enthusiasts sporting some super-shitty yachting attire, complete with captain's hats for the men. With the $2 Sea Breeze cocktails flowing like water, everyone was cruising for a Monday-morning hangover as we slowly sank to the bottom of our tumblers. By the end of the night, we were sloppy drunk, singing along to Michael McDonald, Steely Dan, Hall & Oates, and the like. If that wasn't indulgent enough, we couldn't help but bust out our best seated-stool-dance moves. The whole night was a collective embrace of bad taste in music. And it was serenely beautiful — like a night on the open sea.
