A reality television show will film a free concert that will be open only to members at Haig Point on Daufuskie Island on Sunday.

The concert was scheduled for Shelter Cove Marina, but marina spokesperson Martin Armes said Friday that the performance was canceled. He did not offer details on why it was canceled.

The performance is one of several throughout the Southeast the band will play while its members live aboard a yacht and document their experiences on the show.

Yacht Stops will be available on Amazon Prime on May 24.

Angelyn Iturbide, 22, is the lead singer of the band that is the focus of the show. A California native, Iturbide said the show chronicles the less-than-glamorous side of being touring musicians whose names aren’t yet known worldwide.

“A lot of people are touring musicians and they’re not big stars. This show is all about the touring musician and all the things you run into,” she said.

The show was originally called Bus Stops, but was moved to the water to be compliant with COVID-19 safety guidelines, she said. As part of the show, the band must learn how to take care of the boat and provide for themselves while avoiding the drama that can come in close quarters.
