This is looks pretty interesting.  I might try to make it to a show.

Just saw this on The Beach Boys subreddit!

Would be great if they found a place for 'On The Island' in the setlist.

Their next single is a cover of “Darlin’”, I wonder if a full tribute album is to follow!

Thanks for reminding me of this!   I'm booked for 6/25 at The Ford in L.A.   Looking forward to the show!

I hope it's the "puppy dog" version of "Meant For You." But I know in my heart it won't be.

"11 “Do It Again” (Feat. Brian Wilson)"

Whoa. Very cool. 
(Though now I'm disappointed that Brian won't be meandering over to Hollywood to reprise that with them at The Ford in June, as he'll be on his own tour w/ Chicago that day).

Curious if they're aware "Dierdre" is almost entirely a Bruce composition. Not that that's a bad thing; I say cover songs you like regardless of who wrote them.

Grammy nom if they use the "my friend Bob, he has a job" line.

Hey, that's cool. Too bad it's not a double album!

I’m super stoked for this to be honest. Have always loved She & Him and Zooey did a Sterling job on NPP. One for the vinyl
List me thinks…. ;D

Just had a listen - pretty good but there are enough differences that it's sometimes jarring. The lead on Don't Talk is quite nice - many of the songs lend themselves well to Zooey's range.

Edit: I liked Brian's contributions to Do it Again - he adds a bit of zest even

Agreed on all counts. "Deirdre," "Don't Talk," "Good to My Baby" and the title track are all highlights in my opinion. Not a huge fan of what was done with "This Whole World," however, especially inexplicably removing the "When girls get mad" section.
