NOTE:
This space is
devoted to news/updates and
information on the Beach Boys that
appears in news outlets around the
world. The Beach Boys have
entered public consciousness to such a
degree that new bands are compared
with them, their songs are played at
numerous functions, and their names
are frequently mentioned in the same
breath with Summer, the California
dream, and of course, surfing and
cars. Since I began collecting
these stories, I've been amazed at how
far and how deeply the Beach Boys'
influence has penetrated. Their
music has reshaped people's ideas of
American Pop Music and the subjects
they sang about continue to
resonate worldwide. Check
here to read what is being said
about Brian Wilson and the Beach
Boys and for news of updates
to this site.
