The Beach Boys Perform California Girls Live in Laval
In the live performance of 'California Girls' on June 19, 2011, at Espace Montmorency in Laval, Canada, The Beach Boys showcased a vibrant energy almost synonymous with their legacy. Before this memorable show, the band released 'The SMiLE Sessions' in 2011, which marked a significant return to their much-anticipated and often mythologized unfinished album from the 1960s. This album revisited the creative spark that propelled their career in its infancy, blending nostalgia with new interpretations. Interestingly, the concert featured John Stamos, who has enjoyed a long-standing friendship with the band, bringing that unique pop culture crossover to their performance. As The Beach Boys celebrated over five decades of music, this live recording combined their classic sound with the live, infectious enthusiasm that fans have come to adore.
