-John Ford Coley (Page Two)-
As part of the Nashville songwriting community, Coley has written new songs such as
“Free Spirits,” a duet, “Til The Light Turns Green,” and “She's Got Another Think
Coming” which he performs in songwriter rounds throughout the south. He mixes in the
new material with the hits that he's written, performing and/or writing with songwriting
talents such as Byron Hill, Paul Overstreet, Gary Cotton, and Georgia Middleman, as
well as others.
Coley’s television exposure crosses all demographic boundaries. He's hosted “The
Midnight Special.” He's appeared on “The Tonight Show,” “David Soul and Friends,”
“American Bandstand,” “Hollywood Squares” (A Special Rock Edition), “Make Me
Laugh,” “Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert,” “Prime Time Country,” and the “Trinity
Broadcasting Network.”
Some of Coley’s television and movie theme songs written or performed include: “Just
Tell Me You Love Me,” “Dr. Pepper,” “Major League, Back To The Minors,” “James At
16,” “Joe Panther,” and “Maxwell House Coffee” with Paul Newman in Japan.
Robbie Dupree, is a singer-songwriter best known for his 1980 Top-10 pop hit, “Steal
Away.”
The Yacht Rock Revue is known as the Greatest Show on Surf and a fine tribute to ‘70s
light rock. Their spot‐on renditions of Hall & Oates, Michael McDonald and Steely Dan
have enthralled fans across the United States.
By blurring the lines between a tribute, an original act, and a comedic troupe, the Yacht
Rock Revue has forged a unique niche market and a special bond with their fans.
