Yachtley Crew are a seven-piece SoCal band who burst on the club scene in 2017, selling out countless local venues before starting a nationwide Yacht Rock craze & being noticed by legendary Jimmy Buffett, who signed them to his Mailboat label prior to their deal with Earache/Universal Records.
The nautical-suited & captain’s-hat-clad Yachtley Crew also known as “The Titans of Soft Rock”, include drummer Rob Jones (Sailor Hawkins), bassist Chaz Ruiz (Baba Buoy), guitarist Thomas Gardner Jr. (Tommy Buoy), backing vocalist Curt Clendenin (Stoney Shores), saxophone/flutist Paul Pate (Pauly Shores), keyboardist Matt Grossman (Matthew McDonald) & NEW lead vocalist Ian Ward (Captain Ian). Ward joins The Titans Of Soft Rock with an impressive resume that spans theatre, tv & international performance. He has appeared on Broadway & starred in Rock Of Ages, RENT, American Idiot, Footloose, & Jesus Christ Superstar at The Hollywood Bowl alongside Cynthia Erivo & Adam Lambert.
In 2025 the band released their album, Seas The Night, which featured their single “Pain Of Losing You,” an original song written for the band by the iconic & multi-award-winning songwriter Diane Warren.
Yachtley Crew appeared on HBO’s Yacht Rock : A Dockumentary, Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happen Live.
