If The Beach Boys felt threatened by the Fab Four's explosive arrival, they were not going down without a fight.

From "Almost Famous" to "American Graffiti" and "Full House," Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys have soundtracked some of Hollywood's biggest titles.

“Brian had that mysterious sense of musical genius that made his songs so achingly special. The notes he heard in his head and passed to us were simple and brilliant at the same time. I loved him, and was privileged to be around his bright shining light for a little while. How we will continue without Brian Wilson, ‘God Only Knows.’”

For the last quarter-century, no one shared more musical moments with Brian Wilson than Darian Sahanaja, who was part of the Beach Boys architect's solo band from his return to live shows in 1999 through his final tour dates in 2022.
