Event Details

RIAA-certified Gold a cappella group Straight No Chaser will set sail this summer on “The Yacht Rock Tour,” sparking sing-alongs to classic 80’s songs of summer throughout the US. Chart-topping yacht rock pioneers Ambrosia (“How Much I Feel,” “Biggest Part Of Me,” “You’re The Only Woman,” and “Holdin’ On To Yesterday”) will join as special guest. 

In addition to the tour, Straight No Chaser will release a full-length album, Yacht On The Rocks , a trove of yacht rock classics, on June 23.  Produced by Nicholas Niespodziani, singer, guitarist, and spiritual leader of Yacht Rock Revue, the album will include classics like “Escape (The Piña Colada Song),” “Sailing,” and “After The Love Has Gone.” The first single, a reworking of Kenny Loggins’ “Heart to Heart,” is set for release March 10.

“What could possibly sound more like summer than yacht rock?” said group member Steve Morgan.  “We can’t wait to hit the road and celebrate the season of leisure with our fans.  Grab a frozen beverage and beat the heat with us, reliving the decade of cool tunes and smooth sailing.”

Initially formed at Indiana University, a cappella group Straight No Chaser emerged at the forefront of the modern day a cappella movement, and has since sold more than three million albums worldwide, garnered more than a billion streams on Pandora alone, and sold more than 1.5 million concert tickets worldwide.  In the fall of 2022, the group performed in more than 60 cities across the US with multiple sold out shows, including their 26th consecutive sell-out in Indianapolis. Pollstar named the group in their top 30 touring acts in the United States last year.

A Cappella Group Straight No Chaser Announces 90s Tour This Summer

Tickets for most dates go on-sale this Friday, February 23.

RIAA-certified Gold a cappella group Straight No Chaser will time travel three decades this summer, bringing their newest tour, “Straight No Chaser Summer: The 90s” across the United States. Tickets for most dates go on-sale this Friday, February 23.

“Straight No Chaser Summer: The 90s” kicks off Saturday, July 13 at the Mountain Winery in Saratoga, CA and runs through Sunday, August 11th at the American Music Theatre in Lancaster, PA. 

Straight No Chaser has recruited 90s idols as special guests on several of the tour dates – Lisa Loeb, whose song “Stay (I Missed You)” from the soundtrack to the iconic 90s film Reality Bites celebrates its 30th anniversary this year will join on six dates, and boy band O-Town who rose to prominence at the conclusion of the millennium, will join on four dates with an additional special appearance by Chris Kirkpatrick (*NSYNC). A full itinerary with all details is listed below.

“Our group initially came together in the 90s while we were in college,” said Straight No Chaser member, Walter Chase. “For that reason and so many others, it's a very special time period for us. We're so excited to breathe new life into these classic songs that will remind our fans where they were 30 years ago, and maybe even introduce a new generation to why the 90s was such a memorable decade.”

Initially formed at Indiana University, a cappella group Straight No Chaser emerged at the forefront of the modern day a cappella movement, and has since sold more than three million albums worldwide, garnered more than a billion streams on Pandora alone, and sold more than 1.5 million concert tickets worldwide. In the fall of 2023, the group performed in more than 50 cities across the US with multiple sold-out shows, including a record-breaking run in Indianapolis.

RIAA-certified Gold a cappella group Straight No Chaser today announced the “Sleighin’ It Tour,” their fall 2023 run of live shows. Ranked in the top 20 of Pollstar ’s “Live 75” for tours at the end of 2022, Straight No Chaser’s annual fall tours have become part of family holiday traditions throughout the United States. Tickets go on-sale for the newly announced 2023 dates this Friday, May 12. 

Kicking off in Montana on October 20th, the three-month-long and nearly 50-show trek encircles the US, concluding on New Year’s Eve in Mesa, AZ. Along the way, the nine-member group will perform at landmark venues like Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium, New York City’s Beacon Theatre, and four shows at Indianapolis’ Murat Theatre, where the group has sold out 35 times in their history, a record for the venue. A full itinerary is included below, and additional dates will be announced soon.  

Meanwhile, the group will reveal a short film, “Yacht On The Rocks,” on May 17 at the Fort Myers Film Festival. Directed by award-winning film director Sasha Levinson, the film features the nine members sneaking onto a yacht in order to experience yacht life prior to making their yacht rock album. But a case of mistaken identity leads to classic Straight No Chaser hijinks culminating in an impromptu performance of the Kenny Loggins classic after a cringeworthy keyboard interpretation by a yacht regular (“We can’t let him do Kenny like that.”) The film is the first video to be released from the group’s album, Yacht On The Rocks , out June 23, and a trailer for the film is available here .

Today the group revealed the full track list from Yacht On The Rocks. (see below). Produced by Nicholas Niespodziani, singer, guitarist, and spiritual leader of Yacht Rock Revue , the album includes classics like “Escape (The Piña Colada Song),” “Sailing,” and “After The Love Has Gone,” as well as a guest appearance from David Paich from Toto on “Waves of Toto,” a medley of the iconic band’s greatest hits. The album is now available for pre-order, along with several limited edition bundle offerings, at the group’s online store here . Chasers can catch these yacht rock classics live this summer on tour. A full list of dates for “The Yacht Rock Tour” is below.

Initially formed at Indiana University, a cappella group Straight No Chaser emerged at the forefront of the modern day a cappella movement, and has since sold more than three million albums worldwide, garnered more than a billion streams on Pandora alone, and sold more than 1.5 million concert tickets worldwide. In the fall of 2022, the group performed in more than 60 cities across the US with multiple sold out shows, including their 26th consecutive sell-out in Indianapolis.
