Mar 20, 2023

Nautical vibes begin early and often with a deep dive into the back catalog of Everything But The Girl’s Tracey Thorn. Enjoy a breezy cut from her lo-fi, proto-indiepop band Marine Girls as a primer for the Yacht Rock extravaganza of our guests Young Gun Silver Fox.

The duo composed of Shawn Lee, and Mamas Gun frontman Andy Platts build on the mellow mood set by their 2022 album Ticket to Shangri-La by bringing us the smoothest sounds for sailing. Doobie Brothers, Barry Manilow, Marvin Gaye, and Paul McCartney + Wings are all in the mix as we talk desert island musts, dance party go-tos, and more. Plus, hear about the duo’s Myspace origins, and their string-section imbued live show. Speaking of the live show, catch it for yourself TONIGHT at The Troubadour.
