The original members were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988 while Rolling Stone Magazine ranks them No. 12 on its famed list of the 100 greatest artists of all time.
With legendary frontman Brian Wilson no longer touring, co-founder Mike Love has taken over as lead singer. He’s the last founding member in the group.
Love is slated for induction into the 2025 Songwriters Hall of Fame.
The band’s storied and tumultuous history is featured in their new book — The Beach Boys by The Beach Boys — as well as a documentary released earlier this year on Disney+. The latter includes never-before-seen footage and interviews with band members including Love, Wilson, Al Jardine, and Bruce Johnston.
Tickets for the Canadian tour go on sale to the general public Friday (10 a.m.) via Ticketmaster.
