Profile
One of the only bands to ever challenge the success of the Beatles, the Beach Boys were a top pop group of the 1960s. The band performed some of the most intricate and perfect vocal harmonies ever heard from a pop band. They gained popularity (and female hearts) all over America with their fun songs about cars, girls and the beach.
Their classic songs epitomize the spirit of the California lifestyle and The Beach Boys have become an American icon to a worldwide audience. The Beach Boys' first hit "Surfin'" (1961) launched a string of chart-topping songs that spans over forty years and includes 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," "Kokomo" and more.
Their chart success alone would have earned The Beach Boys their spot in The Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame (they were inducted in 1988), not to mention 32 RIAA Platinum and Gold record awards and worldwide sales estimated at over 100 million. But The Beach Boys' story is one of not only commercial but also artistic success. Their unique blend of harmonies, musical arrangements and timeless lyrics still place the music of The Beach Boys among the All-Time Favourites of today's music critics.
