The Beach Boys coming to the MACC

The Beach Boys have sold over 100 million records worldwide and performed more concerts than any major rock band in history.
KAHULUI – It’ll be “Fun Fun Fun” when The Beach Boys return for a “Surfin’ Safari” concert in the A&B Amphitheater at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center on Friday, Jan. 10, at 7 p.m.
The Beach Boys made the music that is known worldwide as the favorite “soundtrack to summer.” From humble roots in Southern California in 1962, The Beach Boys became a beloved American institution and an international sensation.
The band has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. They are now America’s first pop band to reach the 50-year milestone!
As The Beach Boys mark more than a half century of making music, the group continues to ride the crest of a wave unequaled in America’s musical history.
Since lead singer Mike Love penned the lyrics to The Beach Boys’ first hit, “Surfin’ ” in 1961, the band has had a string of chart-topping songs and albums, including some that have become eternal anthems of American youth and endless summers: “Surfin’ Safari,” “Surfin’ USA,” “Surfer Girl,” “Little Deuce Coupe,” “Kokomo,” “Wouldn’t It Be Nice,” “Good Vibrations,” “I Get Around,” “Catch a Wave,” “Do You Wanna Dance,” “409,” “California Girls,” “Help Me, Rhonda” and many more.
