Brian Wilson dies aged 82

Singer-songwriter and co-creator of the Beach Boys Brian Wilson dies aged 82

Brian Wilson, the singer-songwriter who co-created the Beach Boys rock band, has died.

His family released a statement confirming the news on his website and social media pages on Wednesday, US time.

He was 82 years old.

"We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved father Brian Wilson has passed away," Wilson's family said in a statement.

"We are at a loss for words right now.

"Please respect our privacy at this time as our family is grieving. We realise that we are sharing our grief with the world."

The statement did not disclose a cause of death.

Wilson had suffered from dementia and was unable to care for himself after his wife Melinda Wilson died in early 2024, prompting his family to put him under conservatorship.

Brilliant musicians! I never tired of listening to their music.  And I think one interviewer summed it up well… the beach boys made songs sound like summer.

Great songs - wonderful harmonies -  the 1960s -

a time of innocence when boys and girls only held hands.

Wilson was an acid causality on just one trip. He never recovered.


I do my best to drop a tab at least once a year.


Hasn't affected me at all.
