Yächtley Crëw are a seven-piece Southern California band who helped ignite the nationwide Yacht Rock revival. Since bursting onto the scene in 2017, they’ve sold out venues across the country, caught the attention of the legendary Jimmy Buffett, and signed with his Mailboat label before joining Earache/Universal Records. Known for their nautical style and infectious live shows, the band delivers the ultimate celebration of late ’70s and early ’80s soft rock, with classics from Christopher Cross, Boz Scaggs, the Bee Gees, Ace, Robbie Dupree and more. Their current lineup features new lead vocalist Ian Ward, whose impressive credits include Broadway, Rock of Ages, RENT, American Idiot, Footloose and Jesus Christ Superstar at the Hollywood Bowl, alongside Cynthia Erivo and Adam Lambert. He has also appeared on American Idol and performed with artists including Idina Menzel, Pat Benatar and Cyndi Lauper. With releases including Seas The Day, Seas and Greetings and 2025’s Seas The Night—featuring Diane Warren-penned single “Pain Of Losing You”, which reached the Billboard Top 15 Adult Contemporary chart—Yachtley Crew continue to fly the flag for Yacht Rock. They’ve appeared on HBO’s Yacht Rock: A Dockumentary, Watch What Happens Live, SiriusXM’s Yacht Rock Radio, national TV and radio, and held a four-year residency at The Palms in Las Vegas.
