Late in 2009, Dart Industries – owners of Tupperware Corporation – found Dick Johnny, Feet Olson, Stuart Bencuya, and Bart Cobb.  These are our aliases when we perform as the popular PleaseRock band the Tupperware Party.  The corporate giant sent the above-named party a cease and desist letter rightly claiming the band name “The Tupperware [...]

Nespo Johnny had the honor of opening for Clay Cook’s CD release at Eddie’s Attic earlier this month. Nespo Johnny began exploring musical life after Y O U with some new tunes (and some Y O U classics.)   Clay took a moment off from his busy touring schedule with the Zac Brown Band to make [...]

We have decided to retire Y O U as a performing and recording group.  It has been our focus since we moved to Atlanta in 2002 but the time has come to say goodbye.
Our last performance will be at Smith’s Olde Bar on Saturday, October 10 (tickets), at which we’ll perform our Greatest Hits (none [...]

The Yacht Rock Revue will celebrate hair on the upper lip with a massive (as usual) party at the 10 High on Thursday night.  The Mixtape ladies will be providing a mustache-friendly photo booth, and the best mustache will win a party pass to a future Yacht Rock event.  Stop shaving.
Y O U dropped “The [...]

Finally, Y O U attended our first Corndogarama on Saturday. It only took 7 years to get there. Gorgeous hipsters, weenies on a stick, and a wide selection of PBR in a can made for solid pre-show preparation. Not to mention, we had our first encounter with the Firefly peeps from South [...]

OK Productions has hit up Y O U with another sweet show for this week, pairing us with New York’s Marah from the venerable Yep Roc label for an evening of unplugged fun at the Earl on Saturday night.  We’ll be using the cocktail drum kit and playing the new tunes from our E.P. that’s [...]

We’re releasing a track from the new Y O U EP exclusively to the Save Paste Campaign. When you donate to Paste, you can get the new Y O U track and songs by Of Montreal, The Jayhawks, Emmylou Harris, and more.

Appearing for the first time together on stage (pronounced “staahhhghe), Y O U and the Yacht Rock Revue will headline Zoo Atlanta’s Brew at the Zoo early Saturday evening.
The doors open at 4 pm, if they aren’t busted by the elephants before that.  Stokeswood opens the show.
Y O U also appears Friday night for the [...]

We’ve been off to the far reaches of the country – North Carolina, Ohio, New York, Indiana – on various family missions. Mark saw Les Paul play in NYC.  Peter and I married off our college roommate in Cincinatti.
One such mission was my own wedding in the North Carolina mountains, at which several incarnations of [...]
