Release Date: December 13, 2024

When it comes to celebrating the impending holidays, it's all hands on deck for Yachtley Crew. To that end, the seven-piece good-time SoCal band officially announce their new holiday-themed Seas and Greetings EP, which will be released by Earache Records on December 13, 2024. Seas and Greetings comprises five handpicked songs — four covers, and one original — that Yachtley Crew collectively feel best represent the good tidings of comfort and joy their music has consistently brought to Yacht Rock fans all across the globe (snow-covered, or otherwise).

Produced and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge (Stevie Nicks, Steven Tyler, Keith Urban, Bruce Springsteen, Green Day) and mastered by Ted Jensen (Eagles, Norah Jones, Evanescence, Alice in Chains, James Taylor) at Sterling Sound New England, Seas and Greetings shares the best of what Yachtley Crew have to offer — not-so-silent night in, and not-so-silent night out.

Seas and Greetings places something under the listening tree for everyone this holiday season. The reason is that Yachtley Crew — who are in their third year of residency at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas — collectively felt like there could be no better time to celebrate the true meaning of the holidays than in the here and now. "To us, the holidays are a reminder of the importance of generosity, togetherness, and joy," the band points out. "It's a time to set aside our differences and be reminded of our shared humanity — and, of course, to be with our family and friends."

From the eggnog-chugging and mistletoe-kissing wake-up call of the EP's opening track and lead single "It's Christmas Time" to the clear-eyed navigational promise of the band's original track "Home for Christmas," from the fond jingle-bell wishes of "Happy Xmas (War Is Over)" to the hopeful, plaintive pleadings of "Please Come Home for Christmas," and then closing with the universally shared feeling of "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday," Yachtley Crew have fully captured the essence of the season with what we hear on Seas and Greetings.
