According to billboards around town, there was a yacht rock music festival last weekend. Which, sure, chase that Boomer money, it’s probably lucrative. The head-scratcher is that the headline act was Barenaked Ladies.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but those guys don’t match any reasonable definition of yacht rock that I know of. I only have their first five albums, but I haven’t heard anything since that has changed up their sound.

I’m comfuzzled.
