Yacht Rock Revue, known as the “Great Show on Surf,” will be joined by uber-showman Jason D. Williams on April 22 at Engel Stadium as part of the fifth annual American Dream Concert.
The show raises money for the Veterans Entrepreneurship Program of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga College of Business
The Atlanta-based Yacht Rock Revue is beloved as the finest tribute ever to 1970s light rock, according to the band’s website. They do spot-on renditions of Hall & Oates, Michael McDonald, Steely Dan and the “rest of the Time-Life Infomercial Catalog,” and have performed across the United States.
Williams credits influences such as Jerry Lee Lewis, Moon Mullican, Memphis Slim and Al Jolson for helping to develop his vast repertoire and seemingly endless energy.
“I’ve always welcomed the comparisons; my influences were some of the greatest entertainers ever to be seen,” he has been quoted as saying.
