Al Jardine, guitarist, vocalist and songwriter, is best known for being one of the founding members of The Beach Boys. After his family moved to Hawthorne, California, in the mid-50’s, Al met Brian, Carl and Dennis Wilson and Mike Love, to form the band in 1961. Al played guitar, arranged and produced many songs and sang lead on the No. 1 hit "Help Me, Rhonda." In 1988, Al was inducted into the Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Fame as a member of The Beach Boys and in 2001, he was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award Grammy. In 2005, Al released Sloop John B: A Pirate’s Tale, a fun-filled adventure children’s book based on the classic folk song (and Beach Boys hit) of the same name.
Al released his first studio album, A Postcard from California, in 2010, which was re-released to a worldwide audience in 2022 from Universal Music. Throughout the last decade and a half, Al has continuously toured with Brian Wilson, The Beach Boys (on their 50th Anniversary Tour) and on his own with his Endless Summer Band. With a new EP called Islands In The Sun due for release this year, Al Jardine continues to produce new music on his own that captures the spirit and vibe of The Beach Boys’ biggest hits.
In 2025, Al Jardine reunited with the incredibly-talented members of Brian Wilson’s touring band to present a new tour that includes The Beach Boys’ greatest hits as well as fan favorites and rarities from The Beach Boys critically-acclaimed 70’s albums like 15 Big Ones, The Beach Boys Love You and the M.I.U. Album, which was produced by Al in 1978. The band also includes Al’s son Matt Jardine, a star in his own right, who is known for his youthful Brian Wilson-like vocals on classics such as “Good Vibrations,” “God Only Knows,” “Don’t Worry Baby” and “Surf’s Up.”
Delivering a show in tribute to the legendary Brian Wilson, Al Jardine and the band will be performing the music of The Beach Boys in a concert not-to-be-missed and promises to keep the good vibes of The Beach Boys’ timeless music alive for many more years.
