Welcome aboard the ultimate yacht rock experience where every tune is smoother than a Sunday morning and cooler than a Trans Am cruising down the Ventura Highway. Performing throughout the Philadelphia/New Jersey area, "New Kids On The Dock" are a unique tribute act made of music industry veterans playing show stopping “soft rock” hits from the late 70’s and early 80’s….what is now known as “Yacht Rock”.
When you have us perform at your event or come to a New Kids show, you’ll rock the boat like Julie McCoy and have more good times than JJ Walker.
Cooler than “The Fonz”, and more “Dy-no-mite” than a trip to Fantasy Island, this band is the real deal! They’ve been entertaining audiences throughout the tri-state area for years and are ready to transport you back to a time when hair was feathered, pet rocks were a thing, and boat shoes were worn sockless. So pop that polo shirt collar, make like Bob Barker, and “Come on Down”!
New Kids On The Dock is a 7-piece band and requires ample space to set up and perform. Please contact us directly for a stage plot and all the information you would need to have us come aboard.
