The Beach Boys to perform at Pala's Starlight Theater, June 23

PALA – Legendary California surf rockers, The Beach Boys, will perform on the Starlight Theater stage 7:30 p.m., Saturday, June 23, at Pala Casino Spa & Resort.

The band has birthed a torrent of hit singles and sold albums by the tens of millions, and in 2001 was awarded the prestigious National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences Lifetime Achievement Award.

The Beach Boys are Mike Love and Bruce Johnston, who along with Jeffrey Foskett, Christian Love, Tim Bonhomme, John Cowsill and Scott Totten, continue the legacy of the iconic American band. Grammy-winning songwriter Johnston joined The Beach Boys in 1965, replacing Glenn Campbell, who filled in for Brian Wilson on vocals and bass when he retired from touring. Highly regarded in his field, Johnston's vocal work with such legendary artists as Elton John and Pink Floyd firmly established him among rock's elite artists.

Love's role as the band's frontman sometimes overshadows his stature as one of rock's foremost songwriters. "Surfin," The Beach Boys first hit, came from his pen. Love wrote the classics, "Fun, Fun, Fun," "I Get Around," "Help Me Rhonda," "California Girl" and the Grammy-nominated "Good Vibrations." Years later, he showed he still had the lyrical chops by co-writing the irresistible and chart-topping "Kokomo."

Few, if any, acts can match The Beach Boys' concert presence, spirit and performance. They were center stage at Live Aid, multiple Farm Aids, the Statue of Liberty's 100th Anniversary Salute, the Super Bowl and the White House. And still, The Beach Boys continue to have fun, fun, fun with no end in sight.

The Beach Boys have continued to create and perform with the same bold imagination and style that marked their explosive debut over 50 years ago. In 2013, their Capitol Records release, "Sounds of Summer," which was Recording Industry Association of America-certified triple platinum with over 3 million in sales and climbing, and its companion "The Warmth of the Sun" marked a resurgence in the Beach Boys interest.

In 2016, The Beach Boys celebrated the 50th anniversary of the hit, "Good Vibrations." Frontman Love released his highly anticipated New York Times best-selling memoir entitled "Good Vibrations: My Life as a Beach Boy," in September 2016.

Love released a special double album in 2017 through BMG entitled "Unleash the Love." Featuring 13 previously unreleased songs and 14 re-recordings of Beach Boys classics, the album is a testament to and a continuation of Love's remarkable career. The Beach Boys continue to tour, performing over 175 shows and grossing over $23 million worldwide in 2017, and more are planned for 2018.
