About The Beach Boys
As The Beach Boys mark more than a half century of making music, the group continues to ride the crest of a wave unequaled in America's musical history. The Beach Boys, who have become synonymous with the California lifestyle, are bringing "The Sounds of Summer" tour to the Bank Five Nine Main Stage at the Wisconsin State Fair.
Since the band's co-founder, lead-singer and chief lyricist Mike Love penned the lyrics to The Beach Boys' first hit,"Surfin'" (1961), dozens of the bands chart toppers have become eternal anthems of American youth: "Surfin' USA," "Surfer Girl," "Fun, Fun, Fun," "I Get Around," "California Girls," "Help Me Rhonda," "Barbara Ann," "Good Vibrations," "Wouldn't It Be Nice," "Rock and Roll Music" and "Kokomo."
The Beach Boys have sold over 100 million records worldwide and have received more than 33 RIAA Platinum and Gold record awards. The Rock & Roll Hall of Famers were also honored at the 2001 Grammy Awards with the Lifetime Achievement Award. With more than five decades of touring under their belts, The Beach Boys have performed more concerts than any major rock band in history.
The Beach Boys are led by legendary Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Grammy winner, New York Times best-selling author, cofounder, lead singer, chief lyricist, and 2025 Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee Mike Love. Love sustains the legacy of the iconic band along with longtime member Bruce Johnston, musical director Brian Eichenberger, Christian Love, Tim Bonhomme, Jon Bolton, Keith Hubacher, Randy Leago and John Wedemeyer. In 2026, The Beach Boys are celebrating 250 years of the USA while saluting the 60th anniversary of "Pet Sounds."
