THE Beach Boys will be returning to the Motorpoint Arena, Cardiff, this June for an incredible show.

You can sum up most pop music acts by reciting how many hits they’ve had and how many millions of albums they’ve sold.

But these conventional measurements fall short when you’re assessing the impact of The Beach Boys.

To be sure, this band has birthed a torrent of hit singles and sold albums by the tens of millions.

But its greater significance lies in the fact that it changed the musical landscape so profoundly that every pop act since has been in its debt.

Happily for us all, The Beach Boys continue to create and perform with the same bold imagination and style that marked their explosive debut over 50 years ago.

In addition to founding Beach Boy Mike Love (lead vocals) and Beach Boy-vet Bruce Johnston (vocals/keyboards), Jeffery Foskett (guitar/vocals), Randell Kirsch (bass/vocals), Tim Bonhomme (keyboards/vocals), John Cowsill of The Cowsills (percussion /vocals) and Scott Totten (guitar/vocals) round out the band.

Tickets to see The Beach Boys on June 4 are on sale now and cost £38.50 each plus a booking fee.
