Multi-platinum artist Lee Brice is headed to San Diego for a different kind of show. For one night only, he’s trading the big stage for a sunset cruise, playing solo with just a guitar, a mic, and the stories behind the songs. Experience the music the way it was first written — stripped down, in a part-concert, part-conversation setting where Lee takes his time, talks to the crowd, and delivers a performance that you won’t forget. Come aboard for a buffet dinner, open bar, and panoramic views of the San Diego skyline for a night that’s more personal than anything you’d find in an arena. VIPs start the night off right with a meet and greet with Lee Brice, plus a signed photo and more exclusive perks. As the city lights glow, Lee turns the yacht into a listening room, where every lyric lands closer and every note carries further.

Famed for his attacking, take-no-prisoners playing style, Cuban-born pianist and composer Alfredo Rodriguez has a back story that has become the stuff of legend: the kid who, without constant access to a piano, practiced on scales he’d painted on the family dinner table; who, aged 19, represented Cuba in the International Solo Piano Competition at the 2016 Montreux Jazz Festival, just happening to entertain a crowd that included Quincy Jones, who was so bowled over he encouraged his permanent relocation from embargoed Cuba to America. GRAMMY-nominated, the veteran of an NPR Tiny Desk concert, the recipient of critical praise including comparisons to early Bill Evans and Art Tatum, Rodriguez now sounds distinctively like himself.
