Kayla Williams is making waves in the world of yacht-pop alongside her band, The Yacht Daddies, who deliver a high energy, nostalgia drenched yacht-rock/retro-pop show filled with smooth grooves and big feel good vibes. Fronted by Calgary’s Kayla Williams, a powerhouse vocalist, 13 year vocal coach, 2x YYC Music Award nominee and 2024 Western Canadian Music Award nominee, the band blends the charm of Hall & Oates, the levity of Huey Lewis, and the modern feel of artists like Olivia Dean and Lake Street Dive.

The Yacht Daddies are known for their playful chemistry, matching sequin covered outfits, and in the moment stage banter that keeps audiences engaged. With festival appearances across Western Canada and two retro inspired EPs, RETRODELIA [2024] and POPSTALGIA [2025] which was recently named one of the Calgary Herald’s favourite local albums of 2025, Kayla Williams & The Yacht Daddies are becoming a crowd favourite for anyone looking to smile, move, and lose track of what decade they’re in!
