Classic Pop Icons

The Beach Boys have provide a taste of what to expect from their new album by releasing a promo containing snippets of the first single “That’s Why God Made The Radio.”

If the quality of the harmonies heard on this track are repeated throughout the album, fans are in for a treat this summer.

The Beach Boys’ new album is part of their 50th anniversary celebration, which also includes a tour that kicked off tonight in Tucson, AZ and concludes in Stateline, NV on July 15.
