Yo La Tengo set sail for a Rocks Off concert cruise aboard the Liberty Belle on Thursday, offering an intimate maritime concert that nodded to the surroundings with plenty of boat-themed originals and covers.

The performance opened with Frankie Ford’s upbeat 1959 classic “Sea Cruise” before the band moved through some originals like “Paddle Forward” and “Out of the Pool,” the latter taken from this year’s There’s a Riot Going On. Other water-adjacent tunes throughout the set included “The River of Water” and covers of Hues Corporation’s “Rock the Boat, Donovan’s “Atlantis” and Beach Boys’ “Sloop John B.”

See the full setlist below. Yo La Tengo now prepare to head to Europe for a run of festivals before returning for another batch of dates in the States this September. Consult their schedule below.
