About

YACHT recently delivered a unique performance at a Tiny Desk concert, showcasing their dance-pop sound in an unconventional setup. The band, originating from Portland, Oregon, and now based in Los Angeles, California, is led by Jona Bechtolt and Claire L. Evans, with Bobby Birdman joining them on tour.

During the stripped-down set, YACHT presented their electronic-infused music with a twist, demonstrating their ability to adapt beyond their typical setup. Notable songs from the performance included their dance-pop tracks, each reimagined for the intimate Tiny Desk setting. The band's evolution from a solo project by Bechtolt to a collaborative effort highlights their growth and flexibility in the music scene.

Despite facing challenges like getting gum on his pants during the concert, YACHT's commitment to their artistry shone through, leaving a lasting impression on the audience. With a discography spanning various record labels, including DFA Records and Downtown Records, YACHT continues to push boundaries with their innovative approach to dance-pop music.
