Embrace is pleased to announce that YACHT will be in Toronto this winter and will be performing at Wrongbar on Thursday, March 4, 2010.

Jona Bechtolt is an electronic musician and multimedia artist based in Portland, Oregon, United States. He is a former member of The Blow, and has released solo records under the name YACHT since 2003. Nearly all of his recordings have been distributed by both Marriage Records and States Rights Records. He is a co-founder of the Portland-based popular blogging web community Urban Honking as well as the producer, editor, cameraman and a writer of The Ultimate Blogger. His live performances include dancing to the music that he has created as well as elaborate PowerPoint presentations. He documents his professional and sometimes personal life via video, text, and images on his blog.

In 2008, YACHT expanded to a duo to with the induction of Claire Evans as a full member, contributing vocals to many of the songs on the 2009 album See Mystery Lights. See Mystery Lights is idiosyncratic and heavily layered, exploring themes from the existential, to the spiritual, to the hedonistic, all through the distorting lens of pop. The true beauty, however, is that one can choose to dive down YACHT's rabbit hole and search for answers -- or just as easily ignore their cryptic motifs and enjoy See Mystery Lights for the adventurous and innovative avant-pop album that it is.

Don’t miss YACHT live at Wrongbar on Thursday, March 4, 2010.
