About YCR

Dave Stejna, Rob Courtemanche and Vince Powell

YACHT CLUB REJECTS

There comes a time in every man's life when he has to say, "Shiver me timbers! I'm gonna throw caution to the wind, put on a sailor hat, and play acoustic covers to adoring fans in a beautiful seaside town!" Born as a side project from the rock band NEVER IN VEGAS, crossing the Northeast every weekend from Rhode Island to Maine & Boston to New York. When NIV is not on the road, YCR like to perform as this critically acclaimed acoustic duo or trio, primarily in their home away from home by the sea: Newport, Rhode Island.

Dave Stejna (Guitar, Vocals) grew up running around abandoned airport hangars in Western Massachusetts playing progressive metal. He then moved to Boston and studied at Berklee College of Music for 1 semester and immediately hit the music scene performing constantly. In his spare time he gives TED talks on guitar processing and cryptocurrency. Yadda Yadda Yadda, he's in Yacht Club Rejects now.

Vince Powell (Drums, Vocals) grew up skulking around Philly eating cheesesteaks and causing a ruckus. A lifelong musician, he’s played in a multitude of bands up and down the east coast. He’s the drummer in Never in Vegas. In his spare time he likes to collect radioactive pottery. Yadda Yadda Yadda, he's in Yacht Club Rejects now.
