But with their new music video for Psychic City (Voodoo City), they’ve harnessed the power to command some serious attention.

Founded on one of the most poppy, upbeat singles of the year, Psychic City juxtaposes dark and light, religion and occult, serious and obscene. The use of hi-def cameras to document their antics solidifies the collocation. With vivid color contrasts and sharp focus, we explore two ends of the spectrum brought to life by Jona Bechtolt and bandmate Claire Evans.

What began as a small, exploratory musical effort by Bechtolt has expanded to become “…a Band, Belief System, and Business conducted by Jona Bechtolt and Claire L. Evans of Marfa, Texas and Portland, Oregon, USA. All people are welcome to become members of YACHT”. It’s through their mission statement that we’re able to see just how far this band has come from Jona’s electro-dominated tracks of early 2003.

YACHT is and always will be what YACHT is when YACHT is standing before you.

YACHT is about group consciousness. YACHT is about the individual man or woman. If you believe these assertions to be contradictory, consider the Triangle: it is both a collection of points and a shape.

The Triangle is also a concept map between three points. But it is not merely a concept.

YACHT believes all things, hopes all things, has endured many things, and hopes to be able to endure all things. If there is anything principled or pleasing, YACHT seeks it.

YACHT seeks to explore frontiers and to expand awareness of extraterrestrial Intelligence — which is not only real, but necessary.

YACHT believes in reforming an adequate language by coining new words. Through this and other processes, YACHT applies principles that demand the existing relationship between human beings and the other animals be changed.

YACHT believes in an Afterlife. YACHT does not believe in “Heaven,” or “Hell.”

YACHT encourages online dissemination of all things.

YACHT believes “Free Wi Fi” is not an advertisement of services, but a political statement.

Secondary interpretation of YACHT and the Triangle is not forbidden, but strongly frowned upon. YACHT is always available for consultation at the source (please email trust@teamyacht.com), so misinterpretations are unnecessary and will always be corrected. A general policy of openness and light has been instated.

YACHT believes that to all people have a right to Free thought, Free expression, to write their opinions freely and to counter, utter, and write upon the opinions of others.

There is a difference between Free as in “Free Lunch” and Free as in “Liberated.” YACHT believes that music and the Internet will become both, in time.

That said, YACHT will never participate in “flame war” culture.

YACHT IS NOT A CULT.
