Catch a Wave with The Beach Boys on the North Shore (Sun., 6/30/24)

Mike Love, a founding member and singer/songwriter for the quintessential American pop-rock band—The Beach Boys—brings his version of that band to Stage AE. Former bandmate, and cousin Brian Wilson has his version of the band too. Love did reunite several years back with Brian Wilson and other surviving original members for a tour and album, and he performs tonight with his band under the Beach Boy’s banner. The Beach Boys created many top hits, including, “Surfin’ USA” (which Wilson wrote lyrics for and was heavily influenced by Chuck Berry’s “Sweet Little Sixteen”). After some wrangling Berry received a co-writing credit), Other top tunes include “California Girls,” and “I Get Around.” Love has also written in a different medium, his memoir Good Vibrations: My Life as a Beach Boy was a New York Times Bestseller. This an outdoor show at Stage AE so watch out for beach balls floating around. Doors open at 3 p.m. 400 North Show Drive, North Shore. (R.H.)
