What is yacht rock?

If you were alive between the mid 1970’s and 1980’s you most likely have heard yacht rock in an elevator or at your dentist’s office. During this timeframe, yacht rock was more formally called “soft rock” or “contemporary rock”. This genre was renamed “yacht rock” in the early 2000’s with the popularity of the hilarious web series Yacht Rock and then the formation of the original cover band, Yacht Rock Revue.
