YACHT: Who needs an interview when you can do psychoanalysis?
YACHT is coming. Yes, we are excited and you should be too.
This electronic duo is known for entertaining live sets and a sound that has evolved from sonic rainbows and bunny rabbits to esoteric expressions of delight. If you know what that means, then you’re already a fan. We do know this music will make just about anyone dance.
Recently we caught up with YACHT’s Jona and Claire for an interview like no other -- word association. They might be talented on stage, but how can they do when limited to one word off stage?
