The Beach Boys are an American
rock and roll band. Formed in 1961, the group gained popularity for its close
vocal harmonies and lyrics reflecting a
California youth culture of surfing, girls, and cars.
Brian Wilson's growing creative ambitions later transformed them into a more artistically innovative group that earned critical praise and influenced many later musicians.
The Beach Boys was een Amerikaanse band die in 1961 werd opgericht door de broers Brian Wilson, Dennis Wilson en Carl Wilson, hun neef Mike Love en schoolvriend Al Jardine.
