Featuring live entertainment by The Beach Boys!
The Beach Boys have produced many hit singles and sold albums by the tens of millions. Their songs have forever changed the musical landscape.
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,” “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.
Helping all those in need
Each ticket purchased directly benefits Catholic Charities Dallas. Each year, more than 200,000 clients from all walks of life enter through our doors to be met with hope, dignity, and positive life transformations. Through our many programs and services, we impact lives by alleviating hunger, preventing homelessness, educating the disadvantaged, protecting the innocent, and welcoming the stranger.
Catholic Charities is a blessing to the Diocese of Dallas and to the people they serve within these nine counties of North Texas. Their good work manifests God’s love to the vulnerable, the outcast, the stranger, and the poor. They constantly reflect the call to “love your neighbor as yourself” (Mt 22:39).
The Most Reverend Bishop J. Burns, Diocese of Dallas
