Bassist and Beach Boy’s brainchild Brian Wilson has announced a massive world tour in which he will perform Pet Sounds, in its entirety, for the last time. The set, which will also include selected hits from the band’s back catalog, is in honor of the album’s 50th anniversary.
“It’s really been a trip to sit here and think about releasing Pet Sounds 50 years ago,” Wilson said in a statement. “I love performing this album with my band and look forward to playing it for fans all across the world.”
