The Manatees

The Manatees play like the best kind of group text coming to life: rock, reggae, and funk stitched into a feel good set that keeps the tempo up and the mood lighter. They move easily between crowd favorite covers and originals, with a sound that’s built for dancing, tight grooves, bright hooks, and the kind of energy that spreads from the stage to the sand without trying too hard.

Ballard’s is where that energy makes perfect sense. It’s a Block Island destination that turns an afternoon into a full-day plan, with ocean air, cold drinks, and that steady ocean sound that says you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be. When The Manatees hit their stride, Ballard’s doesn’t just feel like a place to catch music,it feels like the soundtrack to the day you’ll be replaying on the ride home.
