BY MELISSA RUGGIERI
Brian Wilson will return to the road this summer to support his upcoming album, “No Pier Pressure,” and he’s bringing a special guest – Rodriguez.
Wilson, who will release the new record April 7, will launch his tour June 18 in California and head east, stopping in Atlanta at the Fox Theatre on June 26.
Ticket info is TBA.
Along with “Searching for Sugarman” star Rodriguez, who will open the shows, Wilson will also be joined by former bandmates Al Jardine and Blondie Chaplin.
Jardine and Beach Boys guitarist David Marks perform on the song, "The Right Time," on Wilson's 11th solo studio album. The album is available for pre-order now on Amazon and iTunes.
Wilson fans can also catch the biopic “Love & Mercy,” which will premiere at the SXSW Film Festival March 15 and arrive in theaters June 5. The film stars John Cusack, Paul Dano, Elizabeth Banks and Paul Giamatti in a deep look at Wilson’s life.
