So you’re out on your Yacht again and you’re decked out in your anchor print scarf, boat shoes and khaki shorts. All your friends are there and it’s a beautiful day but there’s something missing. Where’s the music? What soundtrack will get this party started? Enter Harbor Party: the band committed to bringing the party from the mainland to the ocean. They play all the songs you want to listen to on your Yacht - The Doobies, the Eagles, Michael McDonald, Loggins and Messina, Hall and Oates. If it’s yacht worthy, they’ll play it. And they’ll play it good.
