The rock band Chicago and Brian Wilson have announced a co-headlining U.S. tour. Wilson, during his sets, will be joined on stage by his fellow Beach Boys co-founder Al Jardine, as well as South African singer Blondie Chaplin. The tour begins in Phoenix in June and wraps up in Clarkston, Michigan at the end of July. Find Chicago and Brian Wilson’s itinerary below.
In 1974, the Beach Boys’ Al Jardine, Carl Wilson, and Dennis Wilson sang backing vocals on Chicago’s single “Wishing You Were Here.” The following year, Chicago and the Beach Boys went on the Beachago tour together, an experience to which Robert Lamm alluded on the Chicago X song “Scrapbook.” The bands later toured together again in 1989.
Brian Wilson recently released the album At My Piano. He is also the subject of the new documentary Brian Wilson: Long Promised Road. The documentary’s soundtrack, released last week, includes Wilson’s new duet with Jim James, “Right Where I Belong.”
