Featured Artists Aboard …

The internationally acclaimed artist Govinda has been pioneering new and fresh sounds in the electro-acoustic genre for 8 years. Drawing influence from Dead can Dance to Madredeus and from Suba to DJ Krush, Govinda takes his beats around the world touring in every country from France to Japan. Govinda has since become a common name in the vast sea of electronica. The live experience is cutting edge and unique, blending live violin playing while DJing original Govinda productions. Yasmin twirls in flowing costumes to the sounds of sensuality.

Joining us for Friday night's festivities will be the The Genie. The renown pioneer of "scratch guitar", The Genie blends blues, jazz, electronica, bossa nova, latin and middle-eastern rhythms via slide guitar, beatboxing, and live sampling, to create a visually stunning and truly unique show.


Friday Night

Friday night will be an intimate gathering of the “influentials”. It is a gathering of innovators, organizers and risk takers that coordinate, execute and support the artistic culture we love. We will begin the evening with a wine tasting accented with fabulously presented hors-d’oeuvre from some of San Francisco’s finest chefs. Guest will enjoy the many art installations and gallery of works on display throughout the ship. DJ Goz and The Genie will set the stage with some down tempo grooves. Enjoy the chill ambience, live music, and improve performance.

Saturday Night

Saturday evening reads like a fantastic tale filled with gypsies, mariachi schools, arranged marriages, and burlesque troupes. Simultaneously beautiful and intriguing, rich with an exotic flare that goes far and beyond what one would expect. There will be three performance areas with performance art, live music, DJs
