Just ahead of the release of the upcoming documentary “The Beach Boys” and to tie in with the 58th anniversary of the release of their album ‘Pet Sounds’, Beach Boys members Mike Love and Bruce Johnston along with film director Frank Marshall took to the iconic stairs of Abbey Road Studios for a photocall to promote the documentary.

Widely regarded as one of the best albums of all time, Pet Sounds was brought to Abbey Road Studios in 1966 by The Beach Boys to preview to The Beatles who were recording in Studio 2 at the time. Today, the album returns once more to Abbey Road, 58 years later ahead of the anniversary of its re-release on May 16th 2024.

“The Beach Boys” is a celebration of the legendary band that revolutionized pop music, and the iconic, harmonious sound they created that personified the California dream, captivating fans for generations and generations to come. The documentary traces the band from humble family beginnings and features never-before-seen footage and all-new interviews with The Beach Boys’ Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, David Marks, Bruce Johnston, plus other luminaries in the music business, including Lindsey Buckingham, Janelle Monáe, Ryan Tedder, and Don Was. Viewers will also hear from the group’s Carl and Dennis Wilson in their own words, plus view a new interview with Blondie Chaplin and hear audio from Ricky Fataar.
