The Yacht Rock Experience

The Yacht Rock Experience comes to the Wyvern Theatre on Wednesday 4 November, a live show paying homage to the yacht rock genre. It's produced by Paul Roberts, who's also behind Queen of the Night and What's Love Got To Do With It?, and he describes it as a tribute to the smooth, soulful essence of the style. The night is carried by a nine-piece live band and three vocalists, so there's a full band on stage rather than a backing track.

The set list leans on timeless classics from Christopher Cross, Toto, The Eagles, Steely Dan, Michael McDonald, Sade and Supertramp. You'll hear Sailing, Rosanna, The Logical Song, Taking It to the Streets, The Heat Is On, Footloose, Rikki Don't Lose That Number, The Way It Is and Smooth Operator. It's a broad run of the era's best-known songs, and with nine musicians and three singers, they've got the numbers to cover the different sounds across those artists.

The Swindon date is part of a seven-date tour, so this is one of only a few stops. It's a paid show at the Wyvern Theatre on Theatre Square, SN1 1QN. Doors open at 19:00, the show starts at 19:30, and the curfew is 23:00. Under-14s must be accompanied by an adult aged 18 or over.
