The Beach Boys
Jardins del Palau Reial Av. Diagonal 686, 08034 Barcelona
More than 50 years after the release of their debut studio album, Surfin’ Safari (1962), and The Beach Boys are still bringing the same surfy sounds to their generation-spanning fans. To mark a half-century of musical excellence, the surviving members of the band have reunited and will perform in Barcelona as part of the Festival Pedralbes, with a celebration befitting their remarkable and enduring legacy. “Fifty years ago, we started something very big, so now we’re celebrating together in a very big way,” explained Brian Wilson, the group’s co-founder and lead singer, who has helped make this funky bunch a timeless part of American musical culture. They will sing songs from their 29th studio album, That’s Why God Made The Radio (2012), which Wilson dedicated to the memory of his two brothers (Carl and Dennis), as well as older classics to give the audience a firsthand experience of those Californian ‘Good Vibrations’.
