The Beach Boys

On April 19, 2012, The Beach Boys kicked off their much-anticipated 50th Anniversary Tour with a nostalgic performance at CenterStaging in Burbank, California. Just before this live recording, they released the album "That's Why God Made the Radio" in 2012, marking their first studio album in over two decades. This album, which celebrated their iconic sound while introducing fresh melodies, evoked a sense of nostalgia among long-time fans and invited new listeners to experience their musical journey. An interesting tidbit? The 50th Anniversary Tour not only included classic hits like "Surfin' Safari" but also marked a reunion of original members Mike Love and Brian Wilson, who hadn't performed together in years. This made the show a remarkable moment in music history, filled with the harmonies that defined the California sound.
