The Beach Boys have birthed a torrent of hit singles and sold albums by the tens of millions. Their songs have forever changed the musical landscape, profoundly influencing countless performing artists to follow.

At the helm of The Beach Boys is lead singer and critically acclaimed lyricist, Mike Love, a founding member whose leadership has steered the band through decades of musical evolution. The current lineup, including musical director Brian Eichenberger, Christian Love, Tim Bonhomme, Jon Bolton, Keith Hubacher, Randy Leago, and John Wedemeyer, continues to honor and expand upon the band’s iconic live performance legacy.

Mike Love’s contributions as a songwriter, in collaboration with Brian Wilson, have produced timeless hits like “Surfin’ USA,” “Fun, Fun, Fun,” “California Girls,” “Warmth of the Sun,” “Good Vibrations,” and a long list of other titles.

Despite having numerous opportunities to retire at the height of their success, The Beach Boys have chosen to continue touring and sharing music with the world, a testament to their commitment to their art and fans.
