Yacht Rock

What's the secret ingredient to romance?

What are the tell-tale signs that your lover is about to leave you?

But wait--the questions get weirder. How long would it take you to notice that any time you hear Africa by Toto, you never see your love again?

What is that song Sailing by Christopher Cross really about? And what's going on with that hypnotically evocative bossanova croon-fest Corcovado?

What if all these songs are influencing our lives but we just never pay enough attention? This story, YACHT ROCK, takes that light-hearted premise, fit for a romantic comedy, and runs with it in a much darker direction. It appeared in Coffin Bell in the spring of 2019.
