The Grammy Award-winning and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band The Beach Boys announced that they will bring their iconic Southern Californian sound to several cities across the east coast and Midwest this winter for their 2022 holiday tour, Tis the Season with The Beach Boys featuring The Holiday Vibrations Orchestra. Kicking off Nov. 26 at the Premier Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT, the tour will make 15 more stops, including a concert on Dec. 9 at Shea’s Buffalo Theatre. For ticket information, please visit thebeachboys.com, mikelove.com and sheas.org.
The 2022 holiday tour will feature a mix of holiday classics from The Beach Boys’ 1964 Christmas album as well as songs from The Beach Boys co-founder and lead singer Mike Love’s holiday album, Reason for the Season. Featuring an array of new holiday songs and Christmas classics ranging from bright guitar and horn-filled pop and rock and track to softer traditional carols and ballads, Reason for the Season was produced by Sam Hollander (One Direction, Panic! at the Disco, Train) and Steve Greenberg (Hanson, AJR) and features artists including Hanson as well as Love’s children Ambha, Brian, Christian and Hayleigh Love.
The tour announcement comes on the heels of the opening of the Morrison Hotel Gallery’s Good Vibrations exhibit honoring The Beach Boys and their first decade. The exhibit — which opened on Sept. 28 at the Sunset Marquis Hotel in Los Angeles — not only celebrates The Beach Boys’ enduring and iconic legacy, but it also shines a light on some brilliant photographers who shot the group early on, capturing the Beach Boys superstar essence. The collection will showcase 30 never-previously-released images as well as a very limited co-signed edition of only 10 prints, which have been signed by Mike Love, Al Jardine, Brian Wilson, and Bruce Johnston.
