Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Al Jardine, a founding member of The Beach Boys, has announced a special concert in Los Angeles to coincide with the upcoming release of a new Beach Boys box set called 'We Gotta Groove: The Brother Studio Years'. Jardine, backed by the Pet Sounds Band, will perform The Beach Boys' 1977 album 'The Beach Boys Love You' in its entirety for the first time ever at the United Theater on Broadway in Los Angeles on February 27.

Why it matters

This concert represents a rare opportunity for fans to hear a live performance of the underappreciated 1977 album 'The Beach Boys Love You', which is being remastered and included in the new 'We Gotta Groove' box set. The album was recorded during a creatively fruitful period for the band but did not receive widespread commercial success upon its initial release.

The details

Jardine will be backed by the Pet Sounds Band, which is Brian Wilson's longtime backing band. The concert will feature 'other surprises' from the upcoming 'We Gotta Groove' box set, which includes a newly remastered version of 'The Beach Boys Love You' as well as the previously shelved album 'Adult/Child' recorded in 1977.

  • The concert will take place on February 27, 2026.
  • The 'We Gotta Groove: The Brother Studio Years' box set will be released on February 13, 2026.
