The Beach Boys’ cofounder and renowned rock star Brian Wilson has away, according to a message made by his kids on his Instagram page.
The rock star’s children released a joint statement in which they said they were completely speechless at his death and then added that they understood that the world shared their sadness.
They did not specify the cause of death and are requesting privacy at this time.
In 1961, just out of high school, Brian cofounded the Beach Boys with his brothers, Carl and Dennis Wilson, Mike Love, and Al Jardine.
The band’s second studio album, “Surfin’ U.S.A.”, earned them a gold record, but their first, “Surfin’ Safari,” didn’t do very well. The album’s title track became an enduring classic.
Following the popularity of “Surfin’ U.S.A.” the band went on to release “Wouldn’t It Be Nice,” “Good Vibrations,” and “God Only Knows” before the decade was up, which led to even greater record success.
