Out of the Main

Episode 22.28: The Vocal Stylings of Yacht Rock (and more)


Listen Later

As requested by a listener, Tom and John provide their analysis on how vocals were recorded, arranged, performed and mixed during the era we commonly associate as the yacht rock years, including that of artists off of the boat as well. Lush harmonies were a staple of music making during the golden age, and we couldn’t have a podcast about yacht rock without diving in to melody and harmony!
