New Beach Boys Documentary Brings Good Vibrations; ‘It’s a Fantastic Thing,’ Says Mike Love
Mike Love and Al Jardine talk new The Beach Boys documentary, out now on Disney+.
Irving Azoff’s Iconic Artists Group serves as a producer of the documentary, and the film is the latest in IAG’s efforts to keep the Beach Boys’ music in front of listeners since it acquired controlling interest in the band’s intellectual property in 2021. We just create opportunities to experience it,” Edwards says — noting that, since the 2021 acquisition, “we’ve nearly doubled The Beach Boys’ social audience to approximately 7.5 million and saw their global audio streams surpass 1 billion for the first time in a calendar year in 2023.” In the film’s touching coda, Marshall gathered Jardine, Johnston, Love, Marks and Wilson this past September at Paradise Cove, the Malibu site of the photo shoot for the Beach Boys’ first album cover 61 years earlier.
